Early start

1 Comment

I’m feeling overbooked today. But, better busy than not. I’ll be back out today trying to find some color in this drab season of winter. It felt good to shoot a bit yesterday, so I’ll keep that motivation rolling.

We also have a packed family weekend ahead so shooting time will be limited. Maybe I’ll head out in the early mornings.

Here it is mid-afternoon and I’m feeling behind. Appointments made for tomorrow. Shopped at Costco this morning and came out much lighter in the wallet.

Sports Thoughts

  • The University of Maryland basketball teams have some big games today. Go Terps.
  • I’m pulling for the Redskins (opps) Commanders the rest of the way.
  • My thought is the Chiefs will beat the Bills again.
  • I seem to be turning in on a lot of NBA blowouts this year.
  • I captured some guys ice fishing this morning. Too busy to download the photos now but later today.

Cold Thoughts

  • Nail biters have a hard time of it this time of year.
  • Nobody cares how humid it is this time of year.
  • People drive with a little hole in a snow or ice covered windshields can be shot on sight.
  • If you have trouble driving on a warm sunny day, just stay home now please.
  • I had an old used Audi 5000 one year. That thing would go through any snow.
  • I rode a motorcycle year-round once. I remember being so cold once I couldn’t get my foot down quick enough to keep from falling over. Good thing, I just got home and parked on the sidewalk in front of the house so we both fell in the snow with no damage to either.

Random Thoughts of the Day

  • I was proud of myself for ignoring rudeness today.
  • The clown show is off to a fast start.
  • I ordered a cake so I could say “let them eat cake.”
  • Getting a haircut always feels great. Except for that time, I had my pony tail cut off.
  • I guess I’m doing something wrong, my stats are down. I’m too old to worry about numbers and that isn’t the reason I do it anyway.

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.

One thought on “Early start

  1. seems like every month my stats show a decline. i enjoy the camaraderie here so i just figure the stats are fine.

    i have the same issue with costco. no matter what i go to buy, i ended up spending around $100. this is certainly Costco’s fault, not mine!
