HAPPY NEW YEAR
As your stingy
sojourners enter this new year with a steady resolve to save money and still travel
well, we also are taking the time to consider self-improvement. Resolutions made
today usually falter somewhere between now and tomorrow, but to consider
self-improvement is always a noble endeavor no matter how fleeting.
Goals
have been set and we’ll see how long we’ll endure. I have to admit they are
weighty.
Janet’s goal
is to be less dependent on the “F” bomb. This is no small quest as she began
our relationship so very long ago with a drop of the “F” Bomb that questioned
the use of Christmas-like wreaths in a restaurant.
We met in
late March.
Those
with an intimate knowledge of the whys and wherefores of my lovely bride know
this was to weed out those unsavory types that may be too prim and proper for
her tastes. Janet can cuss like a drunken sailor so we’ll see… or hear.
My
personal endeavor is to forget. What matters of the muck and mire of perceived trespasses?
What seemed so important today really isn’t and given that we all have a shelf
life, an expiration date, why beat our chests over something that won’t matter
in the long run; God willing? Life is good, life is short. Tomorrow is not guaranteed,
but today is important. Use your time wisely.
Remember
whether you travel near or far, travel well.
Love,
Greg, and
that “f”ing wife of mine, Janet
