Everything in my life moves slowly. It is part of the ADHD thing, along with serious deptession along with god know what!
New conclusion: I have been spending way too much time in a negative state of mind! Something about the Texas sun gets me up and going again.
The trip down was a lot easier this time. I zipped along and made Dallas by the third day (it took me five days the time before, hey I am getting the hand of it).
I spent a wonderful day in Dallas with past trustee and great friend Lew P. We visited one of the spanish meeting at their intergroup. Everyone figured I was another dumb gringo until I opened my mouth...boy were they surprised!
Gawd I hate it! I have been working at this Spanish thing for years now. I got it again...it just drives you nuts! "When you learn how to speak better Spanish...we will understand you better"...Probably true, sometimes I don't like probably true.
I was sad to find out. the boat is not in as good shape as I left it....the sun here is killer! It is time to varnish the wood work and that gives me a good reason to indulge in one of my character defects, procrastination and lasiness.
How things change...when I am in Colorado, I am busy with my group and my life there...when I am in Texas, my life dream seems possible again. Do you think I will really do this? "Sell out and Sail Up" as the book suggests?
A hard look at the boat suggests I have a lot to do to get it done Every time you move forward one step, seems you move back two. For example, we have direct current D.C. and alternating current A.C. on the boat. Two plugs for very different power needs. Sure enough, I plugged the AC computer into the DC power source and lots of things are not working...lights for example.
At least I got the boat a bit more organized...wonder what marine electricians want per hour....
Then there is the old lost your cell phone thing...I finally got the energy to drive to Houston and re-apply for the missing passport...cost $180.00 and I was sure I was missing something but so lost in my attention deficit I did not realize the phone was gone...probably this time for good. There we have it again I got the passport application done...took me three years the time before, so I am making progress-but I lost my cell phone in the process.
I could bitch all day if you have the patience...I am very fortunate, and pray for those who are suffering out there...god has his plan but it does not make a lot of snese to me sometimes...Hey I will keep in touch, and hope you do too....enlavidanueva@yahoo.com
