For me aging means needing my glasses to use my cell phone and falling asleep before the Late Show comes on. As I get older sleeping through the night is harder. Of course getting up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom is common. Getting older means facing ones own mortality too and no one wants to think of a time when they die. Now I am 46 and there are others who have lived much longer and have more stories to tell so I need to keep things in perspective. Life goes on and I need to enjoy it as long as I can. I enjoy my life and I pray it will get better as we go along. Getting older isn’t for the feint of heart.

Tuesday, October 13, 2015
My oh my it’s been a busy Tuesday. I started off with a staff meeting at work then a presentation to a group of new employees. As I write this its mid-morning and I am now getting a few things done before I hop on the phones. It’s been a long day this morning. Coffee will be my friend today. Let’s hope the rest of this nice Fall day goes by smoothly.
My dear blogging friends I hope your day goes well. Do good things today good people. Grace and peace.
Did I mention I am not a fan of Tuesdays…yep, not a fan.
A Sunday
My Sunday has been far from a restful day and I enjoyed it. This morning we went to church and afterwards we enjoyed our first pot luck dinner in the form of a tailgating party. This afternoon was spent at work helping with some production and getting a couple things done. Tonight we went to dinner at my folks house. I chilled out this evening watching some television and some blogging. I won’t lie, I am tired and I look forward to an evenings rest and relaxation.
I hope you all have had a good weekend. We now face the week ahead, lets do our best!
Enthusiastic About The End Of The Week
I am happy to be at the end of the week. Don’t get me wrong I love where I work and the work I do matters but I like the weekends. This is one of those times of day when I feel like I have given my best and helped my team at work do their best. Now is time to chill out and enjoy what the weekend holds.
Whatever you are up to this weekend, may it be great. Enjoy yourselves. Be awesome doing it too!
Happy Friday Fellow Workers
Pretending to look busy on a Friday is hard work. I think everyone agrees with this.
A Ramble About The Changing World
The world is changing whether we like it or not. What was new is now old. The good old days were not good for everyone. Gays can get married in this country now and in other countries. There is a person of color who is president of the United States. Your cell phone replaces a lot of different things like your camera and your personal music player. Boys play with dolls and have tea parties while girls wear cammo and drive a pickup truck. Girls have more opportunities to be awesome women. Racism seems to be sticking around although things are getting better. Men stay at home to care for family and children. Women are running big companies and a few have run countries. Some women are even ministers. The old boy network is being shattered daily. Johnny Carson is no longer on the Tonight Show. Netflix is a noun and a verb, so is Google for that matter. Change is hard, even for me. Traditions adapt to modern times. We are a digital world with some analog people. The struggle continues but more and more the world is changing. Are you going to keep up or fall by the way side?
