good morning.... and a fine one it is. in the small town office where i work it is far too fine a morning to be inside, but that is where the work is. i try to be philosophical about it, people have always complained about work, and i am no exception. however, i believe in work, i believe in the fulfillment gleaned from tasks performed well, in being productive, but not just for the sake of being busy. it is a simple joy to involve ones' hands, heart, and mind in worthwhile tasks, both mental and physical.
i much prefer sewing to government service. however, i have yet to figure out a way to feed my family with needle and thread. so from time to time i may ruminate on the loss of physical work in our society. i think that is part of our problem...
on to be happy with the day. if i don't make something of it, who will?

Wow! Not only an empty page but an empty book before you. How exciting! you'll be amazed in a year, to look back and see what you've said, and been, and who all you have come to think of as friends because of your presence here. Congrats!
