Back To The Grind...

So here it is, the second full day of 2012.  At this time, all is well.  However, with work looming again in a mere 11 hours and 20 minutes, (as I write this)  I can't help feeling a bit of dread.  Why?  Well, it's only been two days, and my resolution to be a more positive person is already faltering.  I have been off of work now for nine of the past 17 days.  I gotta' tell ya', it's been great.  Hanging with the family, doing little (and I mean little) stuff around the house, it's been real relaxing.  However, now I have to get back into routines I have just gotten used to not being in.  Yes, there are countless Americans out of work who would love to have the problems I have, and I do not take that for granted.  But all things being equal, I am not looking forward to getting up at 4:30am, and doing what I do.  Not after the great time off I have had recently.  And yet I find myself committing to blogging each and every day for a year.  Another grind.  But I do these things with love.  Sure, I don't have to go to work, but then, I would have to live in a van down by the river.  I also don't have to blog each and every day for the next three-hundred sixty some odd days (I will leave the math to someone else) but I the former out of a sense of responsibility, and the latter out of a sense of torture.  I really feel like I am rambling now, and when that happens, I will cut myself off.  See you tomorrow.
