Just DO IT! Thanks Nike...great tagline.

May 10...last time I tapped away on the keyboard in this little box.   I knew there was something missing in my life.  Other devices and options are jockeying for my attention, but writing, like the freckles on my nose will never fade.  Sad that I find it difficult to find room to share a sentence or two with the blogosphere.
So here it is...
Life is life.  It's hotter than hell here in Pennsylvania.  The air moving slower than a fat man on a tricycle.  I'm taking numerous classes to keep me more marketable and my mind sharp.  I have a personal trainer who is helping me get healthier and kick my butt.   And with each drop of sweat that streaks down my face I think, what the hell did I get myself into, and afterwards I think, not such a bad idea.
While I don't write daily, I do have numerous ideas for stories that I write down in my little notebook, and there they sit, like a dented can of string beans on the discount rack, waiting, hoping someone will pay them some mind.   Maybe one of these days, I will do what all the writers and writer's guides say... JUST WRITE!  It's not bad advice.  Stop overthinking it and just write it.
