No blog post today...

I normally don’t work Fridays and have time to write something of substance (or just length) but I’ve got a big day ahead of me. School activities with the kids, a lot of driving, more family fun, and more driving… which I enjoy, actually. I just turn up the stereo really loud and pretend they aren’t even there in the vehicle… it all works out.

So as you probably figured out by now, there’s no blog post today. Just my babbling for a minute here. Maybe two. I've been trying to blog at least five days a week because it feels good, and I like to feel good, but there are going to be days like this when I've got too much going on to write anything, really...

So before I call this done I just want to shoot off a few ideas - how you could spend your time if you‘re bored.

Instead of robbing a bank, casino, liquor store, quiky-mart or close relative… as fun as that may be… you could do something rewarding in another kind of way… like, get a job. Or, admit yourself into rehab. Do it for the kids.
You could take your dog for a walk.
Maybe spend some time with your grandma or grandpa.
Take a kid on an outing and give their mother a break.
Mow your disabled neighbor’s lawn.
Write a letter to a soldier.
Research those people who want to be our next President and support the one who you agree with most on the issues that matter to you.
Or, just be there for some one who needs you, even if they can‘t admit they really need you.

These are just some ideas. I bet you’d never guess which one of them I’m going to squeeze into my schedule today…

Have a good day. And remember, if it doesn’t look appealing, you don’t have to eat it.
