"Just For Today"

I'm gonna rest on my laurels, just because Michael says I can. I'm feeling at low tide but since I'm living in day tight compartments, I know that doesn't mean I'll feel the same way tomorrow.

I bought a bunch of stuff for Colbys new room, so I can charge full speed ahead. I feel so blessed to be able to do this for him. His current bedroom is immediately off of the living room, and that just isn't healthy for a 13 year old boy. When I was a kid I could at least go to the barn when I had to get away, but of course there were enough of us that you would never be missed. Although I know it's not practical for everyone, I believe that all kids need a quiet space to go where they can be all alone, and where no one knows what the hell they're doing. No one!

I think I made a mistake today though, and that was to not do any kind of a workout. I think that I need to remain faithful to daily exercise of some kind, even if it's just brisk walking. That's why I'm feeling pretty anxious I believe.

I'm trying to make up for it with a few glasses of liquor, but that will only work until about 2 am! Then I'll start paying it back. Oh well. I promise to get some exercise before I even start on the construction project tomorrow.

And that's it!

...and this one can be taken different ways I suppose. At first I laughed, but then I thought about some misogynists I know, and I seen it from a different perspective...

"The big mistake that men make is that when they turn thirteen or fourteen and all of a sudden they've reached puberty, they believe that they like women. Actually, you're just horny. It doesn't mean you like women any more at twenty-one than you did at ten."---George William Curtis
