Confession

I didn't blog last week. There is an array of excuses one could use, such as scheduling conflicts which would have a degree of truth to it, but the bottom line is I CHOSE not to blog.

For reasons which are no one's business but my own, I was in a very bad head space last week. Obviously this week is no gem either, but we are talking about last week. Yes I am extremely busy, but I always get the blog up. Skidding in under the wire is my usual style, but the end result is the same. Commitment fulfilled.

Last week I chose not to blog. No one else made the choice for me, and no one else is responsible. Every week for over a year, I have done something I hate, and done it to the best of my ability for the moment I was in. Why chose to let the streak die? Again, something personal that effects me on a continuous basis, but something I just did not want to compound by adding my usual distaste and stress of trying to come up with something to type about. I just decided to deal with my issue, my way.

I realize that many people are passionate about blogging and as a rule I do see the value this tool presents. Which is why I try to lead by example, make sure I post something regardless of it's quality to others. For those I let down (should there be any that really care) rest assured that I do take the commitments I make very seriously, and I am still committed to this journey. However, some steps you just have to take alone.

This was one of those times.

Evolution of a Blog

Time speeds by. Last week I had planned to write about the chick way caravan load we did. Which was a blast by the way. We brought the pilot (only male on the plane) cookies, and he brought us caramels. The big way formation went off with out a hitch, and there was much rejoicing.

Then something else happened, and I was going to write about that. And so on through out the week. One thing lead to another and I just never made it to my keyboard. Finally Saturday night I was scrambling to get something up, anything, so long as i was able to fulfill my commitment.

So this week the big plan was to get on it much sooner and write something meaningful. And true to form, here I am again Saturday night in the late night evening, posting with out plan or purpose. Yet time marches on, and it is amazing how many things can happen in a week. Priorities shift, events come and go, and the days speed past. As always, do your best and try to keep up. What else is there?

9 Minutes to Midnight

I had big plans for my blog this week, but clearly they have not come to maturation. But hey, it's still this week for a few minutes, and my commitment is fulfilled. Had to turn around on the highway to get my computer, but again, mission accomplished. Talk more tomorrow.
