A new year, a new run and Damn BC Held held devices law.

Where has the time gone.

Recently I have changed my run from running the rock 4 times a week to 10 times a week….not sure what I was thinking. Actually it allows me to be home daily and ultimately that is what I was after all along. So I go out each evening and home each morning.

One thing I can truly say about my employer, H and R, is that they have done everything within their power to make certain I was happy and that my family was front and center. I guess it boils down to the fact that I do as I am asked….with some grumbling….but it gets done just the same. In appreciation they take good care of me. I am currently looking for a way to get back to the city and have submitted my name for a city job with HR.

2009 was a decent year, many experiences….some scary but mostly awe inspiring. I have uploaded some images from last year to close out my entry for today.

Speaking of pics, damn BC laws regarding hand held devices and driving…..sheesh how is a guy suppose to snap decent pics, surf the web, send texts home and update Facebook these days….thank Christ our trucks are 12 speed automatic.

Tire change, or Tyre change anyone....now is the time.

You make friends after days and days....this is Willie the Golden Brake Check Fox.

Doh!!!Oh but for the grace of God I go.

Home Sweet Home....Why do I love it here so much?

Anyhoo….more updates in the days ahead.

Later.

Whoa, February 6th already. My New Year Resolutions are:

I can't believe that I have not updated this in two months.

Either I am too busy to afford the time or life is mundane and I choose not to bore you with it.

Where to start?

Happy New Year. Let's discuss resolutions. I always resolve to be a better man but I am afraid I am who I am and a work in progress....I will keep at it. I have made some resolutions, however.

I have embraced Facebook and all the evils that come with it.....the reason being is that it has enabled me to reach out and get in touch with individuals, friends and relatives that I grew up with and catch up, so to speak. So I resolve to continue to reach out to my past....you are richer than you think.

I met a man last summer, a neighbor. You would think you would know your neighbors but we are who we are. I had noted to him that he had a large dent in the hood of his Honda Civic...he began to regal me with the story and how it had come to be.

He said "you see, I don't see as well as I used to because I am blind in one eye". Being curious I asked how he lost his vision and he stated that a couple of years ago he was in Antarctica and slipped on a glacier hitting his eye and surrounding orbital bone etc. "The Russian troller", he stated, "being used as a base camp only had eye drops so medical treatment was weak at best".

Starting to do the math I asked how old he was and he told me 90 years old. So in my head I am thinking that when he was 88 he was having such and adventure that most would only dream of.

This drives two resolutions: firstly, get active now....don't wait till it is too late and secondly stop dreaming and do.

So those are my three resolutions.

Promise to post soon.

Later
