I am giving some thought to early retirement in 2013 and need a part-time job to supplement my income. Towards that end I am considering sewing for the public. This is something my mother hated to do and it is a fear I need to conquer. So, perhaps starting small would be a good way to go about this.

Not doing well emotionally right now. Money is the big issue. And work. I know there is no perfect job, and no perfect life, and no perfect worker, and no perfect boss, and no perfect friend, and no perfect family - but that doesn't stop me from wanting that perfection.

A little sad news. Dannie's mother passed away last night at about 2:00 AM. As a result, we got up around 4:00 so I actually got to work on time. This is one of those cases where we are sad that she is gone but we are happy that the pain is over.

I got a little more sewing done. Susie and I had a long talk yesterday and she might be getting the idea that sewing is very relaxing for me.

And I have an assignment for this week. I need to find a park or shopping area or someplace that I can stop on the way home and meditate.

Foothills Library?

IF I am eating myself into oblivion, THEN why don’t I stop before it is too late?

IF I am unhappy in a certain area, THEN why don’t I "move" out of that area?

Announcing a change in the way I create my blog. Typing is no longer giving me the physical satisfaction that I need. So I will go back to writing longhand and then typing the my words into this blog.

February already. We are getting quite the cold snap this week. Tomorrow will be in the 40’s and then in the 50’s after that. Our overnight is expected to go well below freezing. I am planning to actually get my heavy wool winter coat out of the closet.

Had some chocolate. Now I want more
