A Sense of Doubt blog post #4213 - SoD Reprint - Dad Vacation 2022 - Day of Rest

Still in reprint mode of DAD posts in honor of his passing two years ago on the 28th. Published at 13:40, the time of his death.

Dad visited here in 2022, the year we bought the Kalama house as an early picture of the front shows, a time before the plum tree, and with many concrete blocks since moved out of the front.

I bought him the Portland t-shirt he's wearing, which I now own again and wear as pajamas.

For me, today is also a day of rest, a self care day before I start my clinical hours tomorrow.

Getting A LOT done.

Thanks for tuning in.

A Sense of Doubt blog post #2691 - DAY OF REST: Dad and I eat at McMenamins Kalama Harbor Lodge

We kind of took a day off and had a day of rest. Later in the day, we went out and sat by the river at McMenamins.

Good day.

DAD VACATION

These posts on the "Dad Vacation" are published one day behind the day we did the thing. These pictures were taken on June 30th.

Blog Vacation Two 2022 - Vacation II Post #127

I took a "Blog Vacation" in 2021 from August 31st to October 14th. I did not stop posting daily; I just put the blog in a low power rotation and mostly kept it off social media. Like that vacation, for this second blog vacation now in 2022, I am alternating between reprints, shares with little to no commentary, and THAT ONE THING, which is an image from the folder with a few thoughts scribbled along with it. I am alternating these three modes as long as the vacation lasts (not sure how long), pre-publishing the posts, and not always pushing them to social media.

Here's the collected Blog Vacation I from 2021:

- Days ago = 2555 days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.

- Days ago: MOM = 4077 days ago & DAD = 730 days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I post Hey Mom blog entries on special occasions. I post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day, and now I have a second count for Days since my Dad died on August 28, 2024. I am now in the same time zone as Google! So, when I post at 10:10 a.m. PDT to coincide with the time of Mom's death, I am now actually posting late, so it's really 1:10 p.m. EDT. But I will continue to use the time stamp of 10:10 a.m. to remember the time of her death and sometimes 13:40 EDT for the time of Dad's death. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
