Why not

Leave a comment

I thought to myself if there is so much noise I can’t sleep then why not get up? So I did. A mistake I make far too often.

I thought to myself, my better half is out with our granddaughter and the house is mine. Why not, Turn Up The Radio? Well, that was the saying in my era. It was also a song in the 80s by a group called Autograph. So I turned up the tunes a day earlier than normal.

Thought I’d sing along to Hey Jude by Sir Paul from 2010 and found myself kind of inspired. Feel-good music, the kind we need more of. Time for inspiration and not hate. Why not, what do we have to lose?

I’d like to start the weekend early so I’m pretending Hump Day is the beginning of my free time. Why not is what I asked myself and I couldn’t come up with a valid reason not to begin the weekend early.

I always feel better when I make a donation so I thought to myself, why not and dialed up one of my mother’s favorites in her honor.


Random Thoughts of the Day

  • Solutions – mental nuggets you have to dig for.
  • The Lakers/Warriors series is like the NBA Finals.
  • It’s only Rock and Roll but I like it. And I’m not alone.
  • I’m finding out what is beyond tired.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
