Metal to the pedal and the thing to the floor!


I'm beginning to feel like the quest to complete what I need to get done before I reach LA is not unlike the Bandit, Frog and Cledus racing to get that Coors back from Texas to Atlanta!

However, instead of a singular Buford T Justice in hot pursuit, I've got time, wanting to make money at something I enjoy doing and, in reality, the lack of interest in anything else to do career wise breathing down my neck.

So it's time to take a cue from that title line used in the film and get this diesel truckin' toward reaching that goal. As I make the current work situation segue from full time back to part time, I realize that my priorities are shifting rapidly to enable me to achieve said goal. I've never been one to rearrange things to accommodate one priority, but, in my old age, I'm learning to focus on what I need most in order to have at least some of the other things I want out of life.

I'll still be here, commenting on the world at large, observing the peculiarities and foibles of everyday life and connecting with others, but with less time overall. I need to devote more time to writing and shaping what hopefully are good things to come.

I think it's all starting to come together...watch this space for updates!

Congratulations Sean. It's exciting to see you racing down the path to your destiny.

Sarah,

I know. You looked so much more relaxed at work now that you're barely there. Lol.

Glad you're finally done with the book and know that it will all work out for you! :)
