I just don’t understand? How is it that I must continually step up and do the right thing, when time after time I am beat down and mentally suppressed? I continue to do the right thing because it is best for everyone, but when will they realize that their actions have consequences? Why is it that the people that think they know best are normally the ones who do not? Why is it that people believe they can do the job when they have time and time again proven that they can’t? How many mistakes must be made before people except their lack of skill set and knowledge? Is this the American way? Is this the reason there are so many problems in America these days? So hope things change for the better and start heading in the right direction before it is too late!

I realized how out of shape I am today. I left the house at 7 and arrived at Jason’s at 8:30. We loaded the trailer the truck and his blazer. It was just the two of us and he is 7 years younger. I was fine during the load and drive to the new apartment but as we unloaded I frizzled out fast. Toward the end he must have realized I faded fast since he was nice enough to haul in the boxes of books and let me carry the boxes of records. Let me tell you there is a big difference in weight when the box size is the same. (Thanks Jason). I need to make more time to more manual labor around the house and for others, as the alternative is working out and I do not see that as productive. None the less I will need to start if I can not find something else to keep me busy. I guess that is another good reason to to find the farm here. To get some manual labor activity again. :-S

I was able to put some time in some of the sites since it was cloudy and dreary this morning. Prepared truck and trailer to help a friend move. Watched the recorded shows and and visited with my wife. Nice to see her even if it can only be afternoons and evenings on weekends. I recall our first five years here when we both worked for parks and wildlife, and were together 24 hours a day everyday. It was nice and I am glad we had the time since we now it is the reversal and we see each other so little. Love you babe. 😡

Well it was one of those days! Bean has been feeling her age. The humidity has her panting and she just cannot get comfortable. The bad news finally came today, Virgina has about 4 months left. She has battled cancer 5 times and was successful. This time we age just not as fortunate. We will need to make a quick trip to visit while she is still with us and then again later for the funeral. It is just interesting that when road of life seems to finally straighten and flatten out you come upon a steep hill or 90 curve. Knowing we have been through it before helps with the journey but it still has its impact!

It was a quick day at work. Lots of calls to stay busy. It was strange how many malware incidents we had. A few down sites and the normal computer problems the users have. I was able to make time to put in time on the sites.
