Default Taking a Moment


I was taking out the trash this morning and it hit me: I am so fortunate in so many ways. Not “lucky”, mind you. I’ve worked hard for many years and earned every stripe (and scar) attained along the way. But still, being one to continually push for the next goal, I tend not to pause and take stock. I did that today. Just sharing. 😊

congrats, i feel like this everyday. I consider it fortunate and lucky. There are many people who work much harder or as hard and are not in the same predicament as my family.
Congrats and enjoy!

Thanks, man! That garage look is a combination of something we always aspired to and OCD.

The American propensity for collecting and storing crap is likely unrivaled worldwide. I'm struck at the number of homes I see with two or three car garages that don't have room for vehicles!
