Life is hard on a body. Some days you wake up feeling invincible, but other days you wake up sore and run down. The older I get the more frequent these days become. It makes you begin to realize your mortality. You begin to realize you can't just plow through life like you thought you could when you were a teenager. On the other hand, I'm very stubborn and refuse to give into the idea that I can't just plow through life. I know I have several medical issues that I choose to ignore, that while they don't hinder me useless, if addressed could definitely improve my quality of life, yet I plow on. Part of that is to be blamed on finances. If it isn't absolutely necessary, I don't want (nor do I really have) the money to address it. I would much rather spend any "free" money I have on my family. It's sad that in today's world, where information is available on demand, where you can communicate in a flash to the other side of the world and beyond, finances still limit the ability to take care of basic things. But as a corollary to that, it's a shame I don't have a stronger work ethic to put myself in a position where I don't have to worry about finances. Then again, do I want to devote myself to work or to family? As you can see today I'm just a waffling lack of focus. So to that, I bid you adieu. Have a safe weekend all, and if you are in the Phoenix area, get outside. It's January 4th and going to be 72 today. Gotta love that.
