Another randomness post

So many things, so much brain fog... maybe saying (blogging?) the ridiculous ones out of my head will help. At least it will be good for a laugh :)

Change of philosophy

Growing up, there was an understanding at home that you didn't complain. Not just the whining, but if you were feeling horrible, you worked through it. My parents (especially Dad) believed that if you made a commitment, only death could be an excuse. More often than not, people would be depending on you, and really, excuses mean very little.

2011

Well, I'm sure I'll be sleeping in a few minutes (not a great feeling day), but I feel like I should commemorate the end of year. Why? I don't know. I've never been a huge fan of NYE (probably because my parents aren't)... sometimes I'll go to friends' houses, but never anything big. Tonight, in pj's, ready to crash.
I started this blog in 2011 - as a photo challenge, but it has evolved. I don't mind that at all - we all evolve as people, so why not what I use to 'vent?' And really, blogs don't need to have rules :)
Here's what I remember from 2011 (my warped view, of course - the only one that counts here lol)

Lest we forget

It's the day of the year, where we remember the sacrifices made by people in the past, and now, in the present. While I remember people from other wars, this day always makes me focus on WWII.
Both of my grandfathers were involved in the war, but very differently. One was in the military, the other a conscientious objector.

This is a pity, working through it post, FYI

Most of the people who've seen me (or see me regularly) know that I haven't been feeling well lately. I'm getting nervous about it, but know that it will be fine.

Random advice

Never see your guests out the door!! Mom and Dad and Meg were at the cabin for supper... Dad and Mom left, and I went out behind them. Dad locked the doorknob.
Of course, they pull away and I try to go back in. Tried to sprint down the road to meet catch their attention  (all the way to the Guide camp), and apparently Dad doesn't like using review mirrors. Thankfully a person who lives down the road saw me and let me use their phone... right by the gate. Did I mention I was barefoot, walking down a paved road (or a gravel driveway of the neighbours)?

Thankfully my parents came back to let me in :) There was a chance I would have to climb into a window (there's still one that's older)... thankfully my b/e career didn't start tonight.

Now I'm completely exhausted. Not from the sprint - my breathing returned to normal quickly *thank you jogging! I've been exhausted for a few weeks, and it's just kicking in. Hopefully I hear from my doctor soon... had a few tests done. I want to feel normal again - okay, "MY" normal :)

Randomness done for now. Sleep time zzzzzzzzzzzz

Yes, this is a 9/11 post...

I haven't posted in awhile... there's been a bunch of stuff (some crap, some good, all busy). But, in any case, I feel I have to comment on today.
