A summay of thoughts

I fell asleep early, so am up really early which is a rarity. I have done all my goals for today and edited my piece about my very own heart attack. I participate in Habits Heroes and completed all my goals already. I am in overdrive trying to get everything done here.

I run a virtual Christmas entry on my diary site. I need to prepare the slides so I can just have them ready to just click and post throughout the day. I think this is my 5th year hosting it. Some fellow diarists will be alone for the holiday so this is a way to keep them engaged and involved. I gave out very good prizes last year including a crock pot, stock pot, and Kindle e-reader. I was not fond of the reaction I received so know not to do that again. (It was based on them responding to a little fun contest. They had all day to check in and do it. Some thought it was unfair that they did not know about it and blah blah blah. You can't please all of the people all of the time.

There was a point in my 40s I finally felt like a grown-up.
There was a point in my 50s I had cancer and a heart attack.
There was a point in my 60s I was counting the days to retirement.
There is a point now in my 70s where I am running at full speed to get everything I want to be done, ie: my autobiography and dividing up my few possessions

I have had a couple of concerns on here so am backing off a little. Nothing I couldn't handle but I do not like negative stuff to butt into my life especially online.
