Three Score and Now Eleven + Day 138, A new list
Dear Grandsons and Others
Well, we are now fully into 2022, It does not feel any different from last year. Maybe it will as we go long. Yesterday and earlier today I was able to make care of the snow. I did get the 2021 reviews written; See last the entry. Last evening, we did our yearly To Do list. Our goals for the year list. I have been writing one for maybe 50 years. But why do it. I know most people do not and get along just fine. I think, Maybe not. It maybe my personality of being prepared. I value my time on this earth, In this life as my greatest treasure. So, I reason if I write down my yearly goals I can be focused. I will plan and use my time wisely. There are things that need to be done to keep a home. My list is Personal goals then maintenance on buildings, Then New Projects, business goals and yard and gardens. I do look at the goals through the year to see if I need to make time adjustments for their completion. Sometimes I just forget something that needs to be done.

But every year I say I need to put less on the goals list. I do try. There needs to be a realistic attainable list. It needs to be real. This year there is more items to be farmed out to hired professionals. I am now reluctant to climb around like a monkey. I get tired, I can't see well, nor hear well. But the list continues until the end but with more reliance on others. I will still go to the plate and swing. and I will have more balls and strikes, but less home runs. For me there is no choice I have to swing at the ball. When I can no longer swing it will be game over.

So, this year's list seems real and attainable, It is shorter or maybe the paper is just smaller. Know if I can find the needed help.

Have Blessed New Week
