Why?

Why do a blog?  That’s the question a lot of my friends have asked me. Well, I was inspired by a book I read: Capital Gaines by Chip Gaines. At the end of the book the author encourages readers to follow their passion. Huh, I said to myself, I should follow my passion.  Retired, semi-hyperactive and bored, I needed to do something creative. (Since I like to write, a blog seemed just the ticket.)

First, I had to search the ole gray matter for my passions. Initially I couldn’t think of any passions, but soon ideas popped into my head:  parenting skills (or lack thereof), racial discrimination (especially toward blacks), drunk driving
and–in general–a lack of common sense in the world today!

Now, I realize as a senior, my thinking screams outdated sometimes, but…most of the time, I think I make a lot of sense. Stick around and we’ll see.

Please feel free to express yourself because this old dog can still learn new tricks!
