Ornament Making

I got a Contour Head Cam last week. It is an extreme sports type camera that mounts. I made an ornament last night as a test run. Pretty cool.

44

Well I turned 44 last week. At twenty I did not expect to be here now. It is really pretty good.

I have been working on my finances. Getting things in order. Saving a bit. Put some into a Roth IRA. Paying a bit more each month on the house. Starting a new truck fund. Hoping by having some in savings when the time comes for a new vehicle I will have a good start.

In my mind the next thing I really need to focus upon is health. Getting healthy. Get rid of some excess weight. Walk and ride a bit more. Eat well.

Spiritually I believe I am a pretty good place. Keep doing those things that bring peace.

Keep on keeping on I suppose.

FIELD NOTES COLORS Limited-Edition Memo Books

FIELD NOTES COLORS Limited-Edition Memo Books:
I like the new Fire Spotter Field Notes. The dots are great for drawing. Makes for great guidelines without over bearing the drawing with lines. I highly recommend Field Notes and it is something I look forward too coming in the mail. Keep up the good works.

Want vs. Need vs. Don't Need

I have got it in my head I want a motorcycle. It is one of those things that becomes a focus and consuming. Think about it. Look for one. Desire. Weigh cost/benefit analysis.
It is like wanting an Apple Computer. Wanting a new hunting rifle. Wanting a convertible. Wanting a Viking Range. The wants flow through to pass and rise again.
Learning to take action on need and want? Probably not. That one fellow said it leads to suffering. Desire.
Interesting stuff.

Beard

The Tree and Leaf Clothing Grow a Beard contest is in full growth. The first three weeks were slow moving and made the days seem to linger. The past two weeks have picked up the movement to the what has become normal pace of crazy. It seems we are all moving so fast it is hard to keep hold. The wheel is turning you know. Can't let go, can't hold on, can't go backward, can't stand still or something like that.
Keep an eye out for the thunder and the lightening.

blogger

Blogger has a new look. Very nice interface. More streamlined. Looks like it will be easier to use. I believe with all the social media options in life Blogs really have to struggle to keep up. Twittter is easy for an idea. Facebook and Google + for contact and interaction. The blog is the history, the backstory, the breeding ground for thought and movement. Cultivate it.

Google+


Google has opened Google Plus to the general public. It is a facebooky, twittery, evernotey kind of social network system. Could be cool. could be lame. Who knows?

Wonder

Steve Lackmeyer posted a twitter a bit ago in response to Downtown OKC twitt about coffee and Startbucks and meeting folks. Great post.
"Dear - Starbucks sometimes ends up as the pick. But & The Buzz far better"
Great post. Got me thinking tho. Maybe Starbucks is going to become like the Crayon. It is a brandname but there are other crayons out there. So instead of people saying lets go to the coffee shop they will say lets go to Starbucks, but really mean lets meet up at coffee slingers?

why do I have to shrink and go away so someone else gets to grow?"
