I realized that I have been most lacking in my journal duties of late, but truth be told, I have had so darn little to talk about.
Today, should you be interested, I feel as if I have been beaten with a large stick. You see, I have started a tradition of taking the week of my time share on the beach off, and, instead of resting and relaxing in the timeshare, doing house upgrades.
Yeah, in retrospect, this does sound pretty goofy. Last year, it was the tear down and rebuilding our stair way. This year, it is our back yard patio deck. I did get smart enough to bring in someone who knows what he's doing (first off, he works cheap, at least for me, and secondly, he was really down in the dumps, and needed to be around my bubbly self.) The down side to all this, of course is that my ancient physical self is pretty pissed off at my 17 year old persona. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak sort of thing.
Still, it's not bad. I help a friend who really needed the work and the chance to hang out with us helps him out. I get a deck that I don't have to worry about the hot tub falling through, and it actually looks very good.
Still, I really need to start acting my age.
Nay, screw that. Who's up for a game of AD&D?
