So, my gentle reader, you might well
consider what had become of this introspective blog since last I
wrote, way back in December of 2013.
Life happened.
And inadequate planning of my life
allowed everything to get ugly. And messy. And confounding.
Simply put, I left the mountains of the
Sierras and my home of the last three years, Truckee, California, and
moved back to the San Francisco Bay Area and that well bankrupt city
of Vallejo. I did so in order to move in with my ill father and
provide some measure of stability. The wife and kids initially
stayed, but are now dispersed in various living arrangements.
Not to put too fine a point upon it, I
regressed to bachelor living with my wife about. Got out of shape.
Ate terrible. Did not exercise. Never got around to taking the wood
working classes. Purchased goods for a life I don't have or ever will
have. There is an upside, but that's a tale for later.
I don't want to dwell on this, so I
won't prolong it. Just let me say that had I been a better man, had
planned better, had some sense of myself as a man and not a
man-child, it could have been different.
My situation has not changed, but I will attempt to do better. Until the next.
