Have you noticed yet that I don’t relax in the same way many others do? I can’t just sit down, turn things off and rest. As a matter of fact, if you talk to anyone close to me they will tell you that if I sit still without anything to do for more than a couple minutes I normally just fall asleep.
Self diagnosed but I say it’s just a form of attention deficit disorder. I can’t focus on one thing at a time and my mind is like a constantly running washing machine full of different thoughts just flopping around in there.
I like it though. For the most part I have learned how to overcome the negatives of it, like using calendars, reminders and such and use it overall to my advantage. I don’t like to sit still and always have something going on.
Anyway, since I wrote to you last I enjoyed a nice day running around town with Mom. I took her to her first visit to a Mongolian grill restaurant. That was followed by a nice round of golf with my brother Joe on Monday evening in Avoca Iowa. It was a surprisingly nice course for being so far out in the middle of nowhere. It was nice also getting a little one on one time with Joe.
On Tuesday I met up with my brother Justin and his buddy for one more round of golf and then Mom, Jim and I went to make my final donation to the casino.
Uneventful day of traveling back home Wednesday, the best part was seeing Michele when she picked me up at the airport. I spend most of the day Thursday and Friday playing catch up on a couple handyman projects followed by a little cookout and chat with my friend Chance on Friday night. More working on Saturday and then a good practice session at the driving range.
Sunday was a fun day. My friends Laurie and Tookie had another pool party and they are always a great time. We drank, laughed, ate and talked for hours.
The week ahead is full one. I’m starting another cool project on a friend’s house, a Purple Heart luncheon, two new guests at our WAM meeting, pool league, a round of golf with friends, coffee with an old friend, breakfast with another old friend, a baseball game and working on a new venture.
How was your week? What big plans do you have this week? Whatever it is you have been thinking about doing, do it or at least get it on the calendar. If you need any help, let me know.
