I thought I'd write a late night post but I see that by the time I finish the post, it will be early morning on the 18th. I was sidetracked from doing my morning posts. Friend of mine passed away and admittedly, it launched me into a bit of a funk, took me a few days to shake that off, which brought me to the weekend and I had only planned to do those posts during the week, so hey that justified me for not writing for a few more days. I had a few more reports to write so that took 2 more days, etc etc
I wonder if my friend had procrastinated about anything that he never got a chance to do because he died before he was able to complete the task. An idea was forming there but it slipped off the precipice before I was able to grab onto it.
We recently started going to church again. As a child, I went (I almost said religiously when what I meant to say was regularly) to sunday school. When I joined a street gang in the late sixties, I noticed that the other members of the gang didn't go to sunday school so I stopped going. It would be 50+ years before I returned. I'm not much for the organization of religion, but the Reverend is a cool guy and the service isn't too far-fetched. They have a coffee hour after the service and I bake cookies for that. I also help the ladies knit blankets for less fortunate others, a hobby I picked up when I was with Last House on the Block Society, so that's fulfilling work for my soul.
Life could be worse than what it is. My sponsor always says, if you have gratitude, it's hard to be unhappy.
