All sorts of things. Work is busy, with me trying to compress 40 years of experience into short lessons, while young men learn their brains are more than oatmeal. It's a tough task, because they have little to work with. Modern society fail to instill a basic work ethic, the goal of craftsmanship, and the realization that a college education doesn't equate to success.
That, and a new beginning in my life. I might, or not, elaborate in the future, but a substantial change dictates I adapt, and conquer.
I've been watching politics. It's a little sickening to watch, since integrity is thrown away for hype, outright lies, and an unwillingness to describe the evils perpetuated by Washington as something that needs to change.
The weather is nice. Lows in the upper thirties, and highs in the sixties. With bluebird skies, and stout winds, it's more pleasant than many realize. Where I'm working, early mornings reveal fields of diamonds on black velvet. It's more that wonderful, and yields moments that should last forever.
Still, I plod on, take care of my responsibilities, and continue to count my blessings. I'll keep writing, because it's an addiction.
Most times we get no say in the big changes, but adapting and conquering is what we do. Keep feeding that addiction.
ReplyDeleteI had a lot of say in the big change, but the change will be expensive.
DeleteAlas, I've met some whose brains were less than oatmeal.
ReplyDeleteMe too. It's as though the gene pool is stagnate, and the best to offer for additions are single cell critters.
DeleteAnd I became unemployed as of last Thursday.
ReplyDeleteGot a lot of prospects, though.
I pray all is going well for you.
Best of luck. I'll say a prayer.
DeleteI COUNTED MY BLESSINGS TODAY TOO, AND CAME BACK TO BLOG AGAIN.
ReplyDeleteThe world is better since you came back to the blogosphere.
