My Old Car…and My Aunt Joyce

Posted on December 31, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 31, 2013

I had an old Datsun 510 station wagon that I bought when I was in my mid twenties. It was pretty ragged out when I got it. It was a mess. It was a young, single man’s car. It had … Continue reading →

NASTY THRIFTY

Posted on December 30, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 30, 2013

let’s not write about the Earthships

Posted on December 29, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 29, 2013

I was going to write about Mike Reynolds and the Earthship community out in New Mexico this morning. But then I lost interest. So I thought I’d post a link to this video on YouTube called “Garbage Warrior”….and write about … Continue reading →

about that timing

Posted on December 28, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 28, 2013

There are things that we get excited about. Just mentioning a situation can get our blood pumping. And when I say “our” I mean “me”…and anyone out in the world who’s still breathing. The unified “us”. That’s what I’m talking … Continue reading →

My Friend Benjamin

Posted on December 27, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 27, 2013

This is a song by a guy named Chris Rosser. It’s the only song I have with “Benjamin” as a title…so it was the only obvious choice. It’s my friend Ben’s birthday today. Ben was a running buddy. We were … Continue reading →

use the bone

Posted on December 26, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 26, 2013

We cooked a big ham for Christmas dinner. It wasn’t huge…it didn’t need wheels to get it over to the oven. But it was big. You don’t notice how much “more than you need” it is until everybody’s full…and the … Continue reading →

my best Christmas

Posted on December 25, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 26, 2013

My family took a bunch of slides when I was growing up. If we were taking pictures, we were developing them as slides. That was the way to do it. We could always make a print later if we wanted … Continue reading →

“Will you hold Him for a minute?”

Posted on December 24, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 24, 2013

At our house, “the baby” gets held. The baby gets held because that’s what you do. The baby gets held because, like all our children, she’s a treasure…and we want to. We want to hold her. Sometimes, though, we have … Continue reading →

two long days

Posted on December 23, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 23, 2013

I haven’t finished my Christmas shopping yet. This fact got me thinking a little bit about time this morning. It’s 5:05 in the morning. See…I’m obsessing over time already. I have two days until Christmas.  Two days is supposedly 48 … Continue reading →

a little man

Posted on December 22, 2013 by Peter RorvigDecember 22, 2013

I’ve been listening to a course on Philosophy lately while I deliver the mail. I don’t get it.  It’s all these puzzles and tricky words and it makes my head spin. That’s not a good thing while I’m delivering the … Continue reading →
