Thought for Today 10/12/22: I think that this is a novel concept. Once stopped it could be traded in for focus. Wouldn’t that be something?

Good morning, Wulffy, A little deep for me this morning, I'm too busy to think about it. Thank you and have a good day.

Great thought. I'm so tired of people telling me "I'm so busy." It's their excuse for not calling me back, not doing what they say their going to do, forgetting to get things done, etc.

Guess what, I'm busy too. So what, everyone is busy. All employers are short-handed. Not my problem. People that do work are overworked. Sorry for the rant this early Wulffy.

Expect little from people, you are seldom disappointed ☹️.

We all have busy times the problem arises when we use busy as an excuse to neglect our own attention to things that matter. When my wife died I was often counseled to stay busy so I didn’t have to face the loss. BULLS@*T!! I have acquaintances who believe if they haven’t stayed busy throughout a given day then the day has been wasted. Each day I have only one goal, to be better than I was yesterday.

Good one Wulffy, Don't want to get sidetracked by people who are not on track. Stay busy being focused.

Agreed GW busy alcohol drugs none solve the problems or hides the loss. Life is tough n we need to be tougher. I tried alcohol n insane behavior n neither worked when I was alone. Stand up n start living again or lay down n die. I finally accept the loss n started over. One of my better decisions 👍👍

At our age we can be busy or not. I'm sitting in my recliner watching a bass tournament and reading FS. I see nothing wrong with that. Mowed the lawn yesterday. That's enough for this week. I can trim next week. Or not!

Well to be honest I'm having a bit of withdrawal. After living in Austin, TX for 14 years and fishing with 3 bass clubs, fishing in Western Colorado for 12 inch stocker trout just isn't as fulfilling. My most fun is teaching my 3 great grands (10,8 and 5) how to fish. I did just acquire a boat I helped build in my home town in Kansas. It's a 1972 Cobalt 16' bowrider. That's a tri-hull with walk-thru windshield. Very stable platform. 4 cylinder chevy with Mercruiser stern drive. It will be ready for spring. If our lakes have water. Til then I'll catch some trout and hopefully harvest a buck miley and cow elk next month. Will keep you posted. Will try to get pics of boat posted. Thanks, Randy
