Ramblings, often stream of conscious, journaling the events of my life.
States I’ve visited (some of these should barely count):

or write about it on the open travel guide
* Got a call today from someone I haven’t talked to in 3 years. Good call. Of course, he needed something
* My chest feels hollow right now. Like my heart has stopped or is missing.
* Glasses fixed. The 13 yr old found some Dave N Buster screw drivers. Now I’m slipping into abvilance about what to do with today. I have to choose between cleaning, programming, wood splitting and automotive repair.
* Talking to the 13 yr old feels like such a waste of time sometimes. It’s like trying to shout in a vaccuum. No matter how much effort you put into it you words just aren’t heard.
I’m getting really angry with myself! I can’t stop myself from talking angerily to the 13 yr old.
* I feel like my day is ruined. The 13 yr old broke his glasses because he was “fiddling.” I can’t find my jeweler’s screwdrivers which are in a large red package and its beginning to tick me off. Before I even started looking for the screw drivers, the 13 yr old came out with wire wanting to fix them himself so I naturally yelled at him and upset him, the baby and myself.
* I guess my task today is going to be to clean all day long. It would be a worthwhile investment in time. It would make everyone saner around here.
A New Day!
Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:
This Morning
* Awoke at 2am fire still going strong
* Baby started dropping toys from crib so I went to get her but by the time I got dressed she was crying to get out
* Proceeded to grouse at the 13 yr old for snacking on cheese while watching his movies. I was really more upset that he just left trash anywhere. The tightwad in me is upset that he chooses expense bad calories when we have less expensive better calorie snacks like rice cakes. I think I’ll show him the better snacks.
* Refueling the fire now
Last Night
* Decided to set the ambiance in the room with a couple of candles
* Had a beer and slept like a rock
“FRIDAY, Jan. 30 (HealthDayNews) — In a discovery that could change assumptions in the world of neuroscience, European researchers have found human brains actually change shape while learning a complicated skill such as juggling.”
For you non-jugglers, Juggling for the Complete Klutz is a great starter book! For other jugglers, The Complete Juggler is a “must have”! Then of course there is the end all be all of 3 ball juggling The Three Ball Digest!
This write up of the True New Zealand is very thought provoking since both my wife and I have thought “What a wonderful place it must be to live!”
