December 2006
Mon 11 Dec
I stayed home nearly all weekend. This week has no agenda for the nights, and I plan to take off Friday. We began decorating the livingroom. For the first time since im came home do we have room for the platform.
The previous quote from Brian Tracy gave me a little insight into the link from now to latter grade school. Of course, I still lack both purpose and goals in this pursuit!
Sat 16 Dec
It was thirtynine years ago today that I had a taste of Great Society in Newton, New Jersey. In fact, there is a world history block, which invites us to blog like a historical figure such as Lyndon Baines Johnson.
Today I replaced the loose shingles on the roof of the shead, and cleaned out the gutters in the back of the house. I also put the lights on the main tree. Tomorrow, I shall put the lights up outside.
Sun 17 Dec
I slept too much today, so I guess the only hope I have remains to continue the calendar for January. Last night I started it, and it was such a long time ago that I had to gather the tools not used in four years.
Mon 18 Dec
I awoke past 4 AM and went downstairs to continue the calendar while checking the computer. I think I'm almost finished with the sketches.
Otherwise, my other work does not progress. I came back to work rather buried, along with other problems which wasted time. I still think I'll be bored by Friday's five hours.
I still haven't begun repairs for the extention work. They didn't even hook the spotlights back up to the building on the far side!
Tue 19 Dec
The Arts Institute of Pittsburgh called me last night. I am really seeking the art equivalent of the Longridge Writers. I feel I am about to go through a renaissance. I just deposited my bonus, so I am ready once again to gamble over another winter of discontent.
Thu 21 Dec
Finally it is time for the Alo presentation, a continuation of Bella from yesterday. All the sugary stuff around the place has made me drowsy and bloated.
I came to Toastmasters for the meeting, and there had some delicious meatballs here.
Mon 25 Dec
We spent an eventless Christmas today. I gave out all the presents. I was so tired that I went to bed before nine, only to awake an hour and a half later. I just spent time on maintenance on the computer downstairs. Once again, I did not follow through my intended expenditures.
It rained today; it was definietly too warm for snow, just like my first Christmas this far south a score ago. I walked to Mass at 6:30 AM twice in a row, and both times the field I cross had frost while the air was definitely warmer. The rest of the week will have something for me each day. In three weeks, I'll be plunging into fourteen weeks of tax season once again. This time the goal is seed money for the business.
Fri 29 Dec
The past two days have been rather hectic. Both Wednesday and Thursday nights I spent at Block for updates. I also learned the tax season begins a week earlier than expected -- next Wednesday! The year doesn't look good.
On Tuesday morning I went to my primary physician because I needed a referral for the dermatologist, and I had not been there for over two years. Besides the examination, they want me to go to an optometrist, get a urine test, and get an operation for a hernia! Given the possibility of a worsening domestic stiuation, 2007 looms badly.
I emailed Justin Bilicki, who actually answered. He has a blog at drawblood.blogspot.com . The compnay copywriter did not think much of the training for copywriting. I've heard it all before when I wanted to be a historian! I must make a way!
Yesterday I worked nine hours straight in trying to get all the work done. Today I had five hours, which was almost too little. However, I found out that one of the buyers had been hanging onto orders for which I had no paperwork. I just happened to notice the pile of orders in his office, and two of the orders one of the other buyers was seeking were in that pile. Subsequently I found half of them had been resolved since July. Henceforth, I will be tracking all the overdue orders I give back. I expect to have a method in place for the new year.

My mother actually scared me tonight, insisting that we didn't live here (after eleven years). My sister's family came as expected, and they brought generous gifts to boot. After tonight's performance, I finally hid the last carkey. Any emergency will not justify my mother's driving. She may be in moderate dementia and rapidly moving toward institutionalization. I dread 2007, espeically with the health problems I face in the future. I expect to look back on this time as a crisis which makes my future seem so dull and ordinary.
