We're upgrading the fixtures in our home in preparation to sell it in a few years. I called the closest today to see if they wanted our old vanity light fixtures. It turns out they only want used fixtures if they're less than 10 years old further cementing my view that the economy is pretty darn good all things considered.

So sad to hear President Carter has entered hospice care. He did so much humanitarian work after his presidency. I got to shake his hand when I was a little kid, and I remember him being very gracious-even after my mother insisted she was going to shake his hand “come hell or high water” as the secret service was trying to round him up and move him onto the next stop. Thankfully he happily obliged and didn’t have us arrested, lol.

Know what's even more depressing than working from home? Death, disease, war, famine, and civil unrest, all caused by climate change. And if you think your allergies are bad now, just wait until climate change really starts kicking into high gear.

At this point, I think we all need to be willing to sacrifice a little of our own personal comfort in order to prevent the literal apocalypse. If that means most office workers won't have as many opportunities to socialize, and they feel a little lonely as a result, I'm sorry, but that's a 100% acceptable tradeoff in my opinion.

If some folks really need that social interaction in order to stay sane, I would suggest they join a local or , start volunteering with , , etc. There are plenty of other (arguably better) ways to get your physical activity and social time besides commuting by car to work in an office.

I was surprised when I found a local metro Detroit newspaper story today with a video I created and published 18 years ago.

From the Habitat for Humanity Detroit's 2005 Jimmy Carter Work Project.

I photographed & published daily recaps for 7 days for their website (which I managed).

Up at 6am, I didn't get to bed til 1am.

For folks with high-resolution screens, it was 18 years ago; I was concerned about bandwidth.

Carter taught us how to live a life for others, and, as he approaches his end, he is teaching us how to die with grace.

While some people were doing god knows what in 2010 I and fellow volunteers were building houses in Birmingham with an octogenarian name Jimmy Carter. So when some say we should put our over 75yro out to pasture I ask. How many houses did you help to build?

In 1990, I was a reporter for a weekly community newspaper in when and Rosalynn and came to town. They built several homes for the needy in southeast San Diego and another 100 in (Miracle on the Border - “El Milagro en la Frontera”). I didn’t get to interview the Carters, much less meet them. But I did see them at work on the houses. I still have this cap to remember those days and their selflessness.

Sure, after his presidency, Jimmy Carter could have just retired to a country club, put out petty diatribes insulting his "enemies," and played lots of golf. Instead, he decided to help build living spaces for people who needed them. He talked the talk and then walked the walk.

This is what it looks like to lead by example.

The international humanitarian work carried out by through the and his volunteer ethic through his church and inspired me, after a decade-long career in interpreting, to give it up to volunteer in my mid-30s and transition to a second career in international humanitarian work.
