First Day of 60 days

Today was the fifth month anniversary of when I first met Guy. We couldn't share this anniversary together because he was on his way to West Virginia to work. He didn't want to go. I didn't want him to go. When you have to work though you don't have too much of a choice. Sixty days is a very long time too.


Guy had a very hard time today. He had to get a plane in Midland and ride it to Houston. Then on to Pennsylvania. After finally getting there he had to wait on his ride. Then they had to take someone else home. And now he is still driving to get to where he has to go. That was a very tiring trip I know.


 I tell myself I am going to keep busy. First of all I will write this blog every night. I plan on getting my office organized where I can write more efficiently. I got file cabinets to clean out and a desk to clean off. I started on it today but I am not thru. I got so much to do around here I could stay busy every day for a month. But it is hard to just stay busy by yourself all the time. I need a break! I need to hear a voice besides just my own. I need to see a face.


That is where my grandkids come in. Kaylee was going to come home with me tonight. She is my 2 year old grand daughter. I went to Jo Ann's with my daughter Jana and when we got back she was standing up with her head on the sofa sleeping.  I came home alone needless to say.


It is almost 12 now. I am still writing. I need this practice every day. I used to write for Sweetwater Reporter, Abilene Reporter and Blue Ridge Tribune. The more you write the better you get at it. For two years I wrote as a columnist in the Sweetwater paper. I know all my friends read it every day. I wrote something about Bucks Steak House one time and I guess it was a bit of a criticism . I didn't mean it that way but I guess that is how it came out. I guess they complained to the paper and I didn't have that writing job anymore. Here in Fort Worth there are writer's saying things about different restaurants all the time. I guess small towns are different.


Anyway I have always enjoyed writing and that is what a true  writer does. Enjoy your work. You will be seeing me a lot more here. And lots of other places....
