Bad Night at the Waffle House
I wrote a short story. That’s 👆 the name of it. Check it out over on my author’s site if you want.

“Mr. and Mrs. Lovelace,” the vet tech said to us. “We can offer you a couple of options for your pet. We can have him cremated and returned to you in an URN or we can cremate him and humanely dispose of the ashes.” “Neither,” I replied. “Where I come from, a man buries his own dog.” Last Friday we lost Sawyer and I am completely devastated. I’ve lost dogs before but I knew it was coming then. This totally…
I was poking around in my drafts folder today and found this unfinished post from years ago. I decided to finish it. I first learned the power of the written word when I was 15 years old. You should know that I’m the kind of person that has real trouble articulating my thoughts. There is like a short circuit or a delay between my brain and my mouth. Five minutes after a conversation I often find my self thinking “I…
I published another book. This one is called TALES OF THE RVIDIOTS – YEAR ONE. It’s a memoir about our first year of full-time RV life. Here’s the synopsis. Myself (Lee), my wife (Michelle), and our 100 pound Golden Retrievers (Sawyer and Finn) had no idea what we were getting into. We had never owned an RV and just decided to sell our house, get rid of most of our material possessions, and go on the road. What could go…
I didn’t think it would take me this long to write about my transplant process, but it turns out there is a lot of stuff to do post-transplant that has kept me busy. Twice weekly visits to the hospital being the most time-consuming, along with shoveling tons of pills down my gullet everyday. Don’t get me wrong, I am most happy to be doing this because I get to live! Well, as long as my body doesn’t reject the new…
This is going to be short and sweet since I am still in the hospital and writing this on my autoovercorrecting phone. I got the CALL! I got a new liver! Woohoo! Everything is going good so far. Sore, but I can already feel the energy flowing back in me! Next week is my birthday. I used to complain about how close it was to Christmas but this is one Bday/Xmas present I’m happy to get! Thank you anonymous donor…
I wake. I look at the clock on the shelf beside my bed. It’s around 7:20 AM. I groan and get up. I start to get dressed for another day of telework. I’ve been doing this for the better part of the last four years, with the last two and half from the “office” in the front part of our RV where we live full-time. I feel a little melancholy. The previous day marked one year since we have been…
Figured I would keep y’all up to date on my health saga. As I mentioned in my last health post, they discovered two new malignant tumors in my liver. We were hoping that wouldn’t be an issue as my priority on the transplant list went up pretty high and a new liver would have taken care of the problem. As it turns out, I haven’t scratched the winning lottery ticket on the list yet so in order to keep the…
It’s been awhile since I told a story from my military days, so I thought I would remedy that. This story is about the first time I launched missiles from a Navy ship. Yup, I was the guy with my finger on the button. If you’ve been following this blog for any length of time then you could probably predict that things did not go according to plan. Another great tagline I could use for this blog. OK, let’s get…
I’m getting close to publishing another book and I figured that the list of all my books along the right side of the page is getting a little too cumbersome. So, I made a new author website! It’s called Lee Lovelace Writes Some Books. You can click the link here or the picture on the right side of the page if you want to check it out.
