The start of my day consists of looking at the dog as I sit in my chair thinking about making the first cup of coffee for the day. I manage to start the computer. I reach over and release the dog from his little dog home and send him outside for the first of many trips in and out during the day. I don’t mind doing it but sometimes Ellen does get a little put out. I laugh when she talks to the dog and she tells him how much she dislikes him. Through it all the little dog is affable and completely unaware of any one in this house disliking him. Poor little dog if he only new…?
With the dog in the backyard the house is mine to do with as I please. Coffee will be ready soon. The computer is up and running. The words of the pages that I review fill my brain with images of the world. I read much and feel smaller in the eye’s of the world each time. Feeling insignificant yet knowing that I am important for some reason. Ok, don’t press me on this one…. I do feel important. But in an insignificant way…? Ya, there you go… that is better.
It appears that my moods are getting better each day. I surely feel stronger everyday. I unpacked my truck yesterday from the Boy Scout’s weekend. I completed it in one day. I wasted most of the day procrastinating and still completed the project before Kellen returned from school. It is three days in a row that I have made a post. It is a record if my recent past is any barometer. With better moods hopefully… will be better posts…? I am thinking that the world will be a little more upbeat for me this year. I know I like breaking records and with continued posting I could break a record every day. See… something positive is already coming out of this.
Today I will repack for the next weekend of camping. I will re-season the cast iron cookware. Re-pack all the sleeping bags. Wipe down all the camping chairs and place them in their individual canvas bags. When I get done with each of these tasks it will be near a record. Now that I am typing on my blog I am near a record. When my life is one day longer I am near a record. I am such a lucky fellow to be near a record.
