I’ve been “away” but now am back. So happy to be reading your posts again. So wise and true, and sometimes- like this one- hilarious. But always a gift to us all.
You know, I didn’t see it that way when I first posted it. But now that you point it out, I can see your point of view. It’s a rare moment that I can see and agree with two points of view on the same subject and “still function” – so, thank you for providing me with an inspiring moment at 4:37 am today.

Hmmm, not sure if I’m motivated or suddenly depressed… 😦

Hi Tom. Welcome back. I was wondering how long your sabbatical was going to run. Thanks for dropping by. Glad to have you back. Dave

I don’t know….That sign is kind of rude. It’s probably supposed to be inspiring, but it’s not working. Now I understand why some people do graffiti.
