home with humus

life is changing every day... challenges rise and fall, but tend to rise more as the years pass... in 2012, i experienced two injuries we can consider major if we define major as interfering with daily activities... a broken ankle with multiple ruptured foot ligaments that kept me off my feet qualifies and more recently, an arm injury that kept me from using my arm for weeks and has kept me from playing ball for too long qualifies... these were the first two actual activity changing injuries i can remember in this life since a couple of broken fingers as a child...

aging is not an easy process... the chronic neck and ear aches remind me of that most days... job changing is not an easy process... gonna move 20 miles from here in a few weeks and that is not an easy process... but all in all, it's been a good life and i have been very lucky... a couple of friends are in the hospital getting chemotherapy for cancer... people get sicker and more hurt than i am every day... people die every day... i remind myself that i have it great compared to most of the world...

we have become a culture of extremes and while i enjoy my extremes, i also want to stay in touch with the simple pleasures and blessings of this life... to experience and enjoy the silence... the luxury of time at home... it's a good life...

lunch was humus and crackers... and two liters of water... how are you? :)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
