Trying to figure out what to write about

I have no idea what to write about today... I've noticed that I am allowing myself to get distracted more easily lately. I am pretty sure I struggle with ADD so it's not all that hard to do. Still, I also struggle with the mentality that if I just try hard enough I can over come it. Unfortunately this has not proven to be the case. I have a lot of projects I want to do. I want to get a deck started for my beloved (she's been patient for nine years), I've started a story line with the goal of writing a paperback size transcript - even if it never gets published, there are several repairs/projects that I need to get done around the house, not to mention I need to really work on certifications for my job - and book learning is not my forte, I even want to start studying Aikido. See, I even got distracted while trying to get this entry in! LOL. I guess I am getting a little distracted by coming up on the end of my (reserve) military career, and the 4th of July. So many things to occupy my mind... oh look, a shinny penny! Verse for today: Proverbs 24 : 30-34, ESV I passed by the field of a sluggard, by the vineyard of a man lacking sense, and behold, it was all overgrown with thorns; the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down. Then I saw and considered it; I looked and received instruction. A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.

I can relate. Your to do list sounds like mine -- minus building a deck!

Ugh -- I hate when I have a whole bunch of things to do and can't seem to decide what is most important. Those are the days you'll see me completely absorbed in facebook or some other pointless endeavor!
