The Starting Point


My thoughts today are these.  I wish I didn't have to go to work.  Although I took off Wednesday so the blow of starting a new work week has been deflated a bit.  That just means that I just need to endure two days of work and then have a day off and then work two days again.  I'm should I'm not the only one that has counted the days like that.  

I work at Verizon Wireless and wont get home until probably 1 am because I will go to the gym after work.  I tough working so late but it's what I need to do so my kids are not in day care.  I have this odd goal of running a marathon.  I'm taking the training a bit slower so I can make sure that I will be ready to run it and not die.  I don't mind if I am a little dead after the race so I can walk maybe the day after.  We'll see what happens. 

I'm coming off my third Father's day of my life as a father and it was great.  Anytime that I get to spend time with my kids and wife for the entire day and get gifts is alright by me. I'm lucky to have them.  Although that is probably the most machismo thing to say it's the truth and I think that if you ask any man that has a family they will say the same thing.
