People on the River.

Knit by hand. Not my hand, but someone's.

 Remaining in the present moment is not as easy as it sounds.
Like, when you start to think about how messed up everything is?
In the world, or in the life you are living.
That stuff can weigh on one's mind and get in the way of staying in the "moment".

Something that I find helps is to make a list for the day and just focus on the list.
It is easier somehow to tackle a day than to tackle the future, the present and the past
all at one time.
That is a pretty tall order all three.
But one day at a time is actually pretty easy.

I like the sound of that; One day at a time.
I think that is a pretty good phrase and from here on out, if you ever hear anyone use it, you tell them who came up with it.
Me. I came up with it.

-moving on-

Today my list read:
-Resumes
-Organize
-Clean
-Shelves
-Groceries
-Emails

I put a big fat check through all that stuff.
Then I added one last item:
-High Five Self

Which I promptly did.
See? It's F'ing simple.

All that was left was to build Legos with Burger and make dinner.
But I don't need to put that stuff on any lists.
That stuff is just life bro.

No complaints there.
I love you.

Cookie Exchange 2012.

2012 Ornament Set.

This year I got myself into a Cookie Exchange.
My Mom club friends invited me.
I had to make 7 dozen cookies and seven ornamanets.
Almost immediately I was nervous that I would somehow not get my shit done.
I couldn't figure out what to make, and I didn't know what was going
to happen with the ornament portion.

As per usual it all worked out in the end and it was all thanks to procrastination!
I ended up making Bacon Fat Ginger Snaps.
What can I say, I got a line on some free Bacon Fat.
Like they say, "When life gives you free bacon fat..."

And conveniently I had just blown a tube on my bike, so the ornaments practically made themselves!!
Most importantly, I got everything out into the proper streams just in time.
So I am all done.
That's it!
That's all!!

Nothing to do but sit back and wait for the cookies to start rolling in.

I love having a beginning, middle and end to something.
Start and finish.
It feels great to put a big check through something on your list.
Right?
Right.

Anyways, there are other things to talk about.
But that is for later.
loveyouguys.
