A Really Eloquent, Profound Bit of Writing To Start the New Year

Well.

That was a lot of food.

Have a nice break?

I thought I’d have something ace to blog about, but no.  I’ve managed to do not one thing.

Was thinking about 2011, what stuff I got done, and didn’t, and all that.

For approximately one hour in September I decided that I was going to be an extreme couponer.  But then I couldn’t figure out how to use the app that I downloaded–the one that was going to do the extreme couponing for me, so I decided not to do it.  Actually, I don’t remember making a conscious decision to not do couponing; I think I just went to start some laundry or something and forgot all about it until now.  But I still don’t want to do it.

In November, for approximately three days, I decided that we as a family should grow Christmas trees, like, for profit someday.  I think it all started when I had some evergreen-scented oil warming and I decided I would like to live amongst that scent continually.  Look, there’s the book still on my nightstand.

Oh and the marathon one.

I really wanted to stay on the 16-week schedule so that I can run the race in Nashville in April, but I can’t seem to stay on schedule.

Imagine that.

I have been running a lot.  Just…not…on…the schedule.  And, unfortunately, running over twenty miles at a time isn’t something I can just do on a whim.  But that is ok.  The MCM looks funner anyway.

My son inherited his great-grandfather’s lathe, hence the turning book.  Hence the very fine wood dust everywhere.

I want to watch this movie, but I need to read the play first, hence Coriolanus.

It looks like I’m into Robot Wars, huh?  I told my son I’d read them, so I guess I really need to get into Robot Wars.

I’m going to go paint my office now.  Another thing I started last year.  And then maybe start a monkey-themed quilt.  Primate.

And then run, not on schedule.

Hope to post more Soul Money this week.

Bye.
