P90X Day 1 & Out of the Mouths of babes
Chest and Shoulders and Ab Ripper X. Filled out my worksheet but man, my numbers are pretty pathetic. Well, I gave is close to 100% anyway. My pull up station is junk and I'm going to build a solid wood one in the back yard. Will update this with pics.
This new chapter in my life is courtesy of my ex company being acquired. I have a few weeks of freedom which I've never really had in my adult life.
There are a ton of things for me to do and I'm still in the process of organizing them around a central theme or direction. Lots of busy work without a goal will make the time disappear and at the end I'll be in a bind looking for a job.
My daughter said something quite interesting to me last night. I broke the news that I was without a job for the first time in my life. Her reply was "That's good because it didn't seem like your job was very much fun." Her words didn't resonate until I was in the shower a bit later when her observation suddently struck me like a bolt out of the blue.
She's absolutely right, it wasn't fun and that, perhaps, was one of the problems. I'm middle aged now and still very healthy but one can never take that for granted. So I guess that begs the question of just what would I consider a fun job?

- Bicycle Cop

- triathlete (too old to be pro)
- personal trainer
- Politician? (Ugh)

- Tax preparer?
- professional organizer?
I can probably easily narrow down that list and perhaps that is really my first mission. For now, however, I have to finish this double gate I started yesterday.

First class cads
I'm waiting respectfully just beyond the first class chute at a gate. I'm in first class thanks to an upgrade so wanted to be close to the front to make sure I get a good overhead spot. About six people went around me to stand actually inside the chute. When the incoming passengers disembarked, these people crowded their exit path. I
