Just another Sunday and another year

Well, here it is Sunday, One of the two teams I picked for the finals of the NCAA tournament is in and I couldn't care less. I need to practice just writing, as I have decided to take another writing course at RACC, that's Reading Area Community College, for those who care and don't know, with my wife for something to do on Saturday mornings for the next five weeks. I found I really enjoy writing, but have no self dicipline to just sit down and log my thoughts and ideas, which is what it takes to be a successful writer, that and an ability to convey thoughts and ideas in a humorous, interesting, or whatever style I may choose to write in, that would make it readable to someone other than myself. I find I have the ability to expand on almost any topic presented in class, for assignment, what I have a problem with, is knowing when to stop, or more accurate yet, how to close out a thought. A lot has happened since the last time put finger to keyboard, as opposed to pen to paper, here and I hope to, little by little catch up while I try to have the dicipline it takes to just sit down and type. I bought a bike yesterday, in the hopes of getting back to excercising to some degree. I decided to have them change the seat, from one of those little banana seats, that dissapear completely up your ass when you sit on it and are about as comfortable as sitting on a rock. I have them putting a little larger spring type seat that is attached to a telescoping post which will afford at least a little more comfort for my back. They are also changing the tires to a little larger and more knobby type for either on asphalt or off road type riding. I always find I am more apt to get involved in an activity if it involves some sort of gadget, in this case a bicycle, instead of just my feet and walking. I have also gotten into model trains, since my last post. I have been playing with both HO and O gauge model trains and am in the process of setting up two systems in my basement, again a hobby that involves gadgets, but I really do love those old time steam locomotives, they are so cool and the higher end models are so intricate in their design. I am having a ball with them but have to get the layouts designed so I know where to start in putting all the scenery and structures. Fortunately I have a fairly large basement so I can spread all the stuff out and still have room to walk around without stepping on too much stuff. Well, that is where I am at this time. Writing, biking and trains. I have to put all of this on hold for the moment, however, as I just heard from "she who must be obeyed", that it is time to bathe and give hair cuts to Curly, Molly and Maggie, our three Yorkies. I will be back here later, as when I am done with that I believe I will sit in the hot tub for a few minutes and relax. Life is goo.
