New Years about here.

It's inching closer and closer to a new year. That means we can start over with a clean slate. Sure I want to try and be a better version of myself but I'm not going to get crazy. I want to get in a little better shape in 2022. Someone asked me what gave me the incentive for that goal? I explained it was all the crime I was seeing on TV. If I get murdered I want my chalk outline to look nice. (I'm so vain.) I'll work on that vain problem in 2023. I had my son ask what generation I would be considered part of? I explained how I was from the "Figure it out yourself generation." Not like you the Google it or Youtube it generation. I shared some of the graduation mottos I'd come across from the past few years like; "The tassels were worth the hassle." How about "We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails." (Yuck.) I told him what my high school senior class motto was, "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun." He goes really? For sure son. He said, "That's kind of badass Dad." I explained how where I grew up we had a substitute for good manners. That's fast reflexes. This New Year I want to try and dress better. Right now I'd call my look "Casual Comfort". I'm going to transition into more of a "Guy Next Door" style. One day you can see me out and about in jeans with a hammer. The next day in nicer jeans with a hammer in one hand and a wine cooler in the other. I think it's a worthy goal. I do think it's not even the new year and I'm off to a good start on being a better person. (I had something happen that had never in my life occurred before.) While at the store yesterday I had a lady come up to me while checking out, ask if she could have two of these items I had on the belt? Seems I had taken the final six in the store and she wanted two of them for her grandkids. Well, I was getting those six for my grandkids. I had to think about it for a half-second and said sure. What would Jesus do right? I know it's said the test of generosity is not how much you give, but how much you have left. Well, I didn't have enough for all the grandkids but I figured that's a problem for another day. I got to believe Jesus, Mary and Moses were upstairs saying to each other, "Yep he's finally turned the corner." Well we got a new year coming I hope it's a great one for you. My wife asked me if I had anything, in particular, I wanted on New Year's Eve? I mentioned I had one thing that involved Coconut Oil. She said sorry but I'm talking reality-wise, not fantasies. Perhaps her attitude will improve when I get into my Guy Next Door look?

I guess I AM a Millennial...

I used to hate being lumped in with "Millennials" but I think that my generation gets a bad rep. Sure, some of it's funny but the tide pod eaters are gen z, not millennials. We are the ones who were told we had to go to college or we couldn't get a good job, then discovered we STILL couldn't get a good job so now we're all drowning in debt. We're the ones who discovered that you can't just walk in and talk to the manager anymore (like our parents/grandparents told us to), you have to apply online. We're the generation that got told we could be anything, could do whatever we put our minds to only to find out that we didn't have the resources necessary to follow our dreams.

Sorry. Got a little carried away there. But it's true.
