Still trying...

I've wanted to write for the longest time...  always used the excuse there was not enough time, that's if I even thought about it...  most the time I never even think about it...  just jump from one fire to the next and then the day is over and we do it again.  Speaking of fires... I was working on Scentsy orders (and I do love Scentsy orders), stopped for a minute to put a bagel in the toaster that Travis had brought home for me from Panera (he takes care of his Papa).  Cinnamon Crunch...  they are so good.  Anyway, bagel in the toaster... quick trip to the bathroom while it toast.  When I come out I heard what I thought was water running.  It wasn't, it was the crunch boiling or something in the toaster with flames coming out of the top...  holy crap!

Anyway, fire is out, no damage...  back to the writing.  My friend Phil Gerbyshak was one of the first to encourage me to write...  it might have been Kirk Weisler, but I'll give the credit for this one to Phil because that's when I actually started writing in this and other logs more often.  Thanks Phil!  As you can see from the number of post here, I have not done a very good job at Phil and Becky Robinson 12 Minutes at a Time project, but I'm here trying again. 

Most recently, I have found Matt Cutt's TED presentation (less than 4 minutes) to "Try Something for 30 Days".  Great inspirational message.  Good enough to have be back here again doing what I know I want to do.  Sure wish I could speak like Matt...  maybe that's another thing I need to work on.  I should hurry while there is time.  Why is it we wait so long for what is important to us?

Gotta go practice.
