April 18, 2011-What Blog?

     For the first time ever, maybe, since I started this writing adventure online back in July, I found myself waking up on WEDNESDAY morning here in Alabama panicked a bit because I had forgotten totally about writing the past couple of days.  Well, that's not completely true, I guess. I do remember thinking on TUESDAY about what I should write about for MONDAY, which was kind of a lazy day with nothing much to report, but other than that brief "what to write" moment, you could have asked me about my blog, and my immediate response would have been "What blog?"  Sorry about that...I'm back now and ready to rock and roll. I'm sure you've been waiting with baited breath to see what I had to say.  :) Keep waiting....nothing exciting to report for Monday.  Just an average, ordinary, do a couple of hours of work than lay around the house kind of day.  At least it wasn't "a terrible, horrible, no good very bad day" like Alexander has in the well known children's book.  The good news is we are all still alive and doing well here in Alabama, but we are preparing to head back later this week to the islands. Everyone seems to be ready to go, missing friends and such. Personally, I miss the routine and structure of our lives there.  It may get mundane and tedious at times, but without a schedule or routine, I feel a bit lost and useless.  Heck, even the blog takes a hit! :)  We all need a purpose for life day in and day out, and the duties of my present job and raising my kids are the two biggest chunks of that purpose.  All the rest is icing on the cake, such as my fiance and my house and recreation on the weekends in general.  So, I'm looking forward to getting back to my purpose in life, but also my kind of recreation, scuba diving with my honey and hanging out on the beach of my "home" island!
