The Next Trip

The next trip begins on Tuesday. I am off to Michigan to visit my Mother and Brother. It should be fun to see their families and maybe even some of my old friends. The trip begins with an early morning flight to Detroit from lewiston. I hope that weather cooperates and that there are not big flight delays in Salt Lake.
The ice fishing is something that I am hoping to get to try in Michigan. It has been a long time since I have done some serious ice fishing! I hope that the perch are biting.

2008 New Year

Happy New Year.
I am trying to get a new entry into my blog. My computer has been down for a week due to a fan that quit. I took the unit over to a friend's house and he was able to get one of the fans cleaned and working but the other is definitely not going to run again. He ordered a new unit and it should be here next week. Hopefully that should put me back into full operation. Until then I will maintain a minimum input. Feel free to comment but it may be a while until I answer. Again I hope that the New Year brings you completion of all your dreams. I hope to visit you soon.
Popsie.

Happy New Year

WOW Here it is 2008! How time flies. I am sitting here at my blog site wondering where all my time has gone. I had anticipated that by now I would have decided what it was that i wanted to do ... and would be doing it. Well here it is time to make New Year's resolutions and I am still procrastinating about it. I must be the King of Procrastinators!
Lets investigate the facts. Current situation is I am doing nothing as I vegetate in my Idaho apartment. I have no short term gols for existance other then a still urge to get into better condition and to lose about 50 pounds. I guess my dream would be to make the weight charts in a category other then obese!
I want to go ice fishing. There is no safe ice in Idaho. I guess that I need to explore fishing ccondition in Montana. I will call Wally today and make my fishing plans. If no fishing oppurtunities exist in Montana I will explore river fishing oppurtunities in near by rivers. Whitefish are there and I have a friend who volunteered to smoke any that I can catch.
I need to finalize care plans for my mother. She is living alone and as she ages she is losing mobility. The firemen had to recue her as she became trapped on her steps as she tried to mail me a letter. We need to get life alert. We also need to have someone check on her every day. Maybe I should go back there to live for a period of time. I don't think that I would survive life in Detroit. I have been living in a small town too long. I love the fishing oppurtunities but don't know how to cope with all the people.
I need more daily exercise. I need to schedule a trip to the local gym and see what equipment they have and whether I can develope a fitness program to use it.
I need to do some structured looking for a job! I want to work. I don't like just sitting around at the computer. I would like it if I had something to do on a computer that made me some money but then I don't want to give up all my time in order to do it. I really enjoyed working with Donald. We got up early every morning and feed calves. It was hard physical labor but I seemed to enjoy it. I doubt that I would have liked doing it for just any one. I enjoyed the fresh air and being outside. I missed the computer. After three weeks I barely knew how to operate mine.
Well there you have it! I am doing fine. If I could somehow get off of dead center and start getting on with life I know that I would be doing better. I hope that I haven't bored you to death with this blog. I hope that the New year brings you happiness as you face the same questions that I am dealing with.
