A tear in the fabric
I didn’t intend to blog about sadness again. I had planned a weekend of writing, watching the Masters and possibly tackling Mt. Washmore. I had plans to hang out with my oldest son and his girlfriend, who were home for a late spring break – because spring comes later in Saskatchewan than here in B.C. My son’s girlfriend hails from a small town just south of Saskatoon. Saskatchewan is a patchwork province made entirely out of small towns – connected by threads of asphalt highways, and gravel grid roads, and train tracks.

Wow, what a learning curve! So I’ve moved my blog from blogspot over to WordPress, and then over to a different version of WordPress … then I broke it all LOL. So hopefully this works. And stays working. So I’ve been allowing this stupid website / blog issue hold me back and make me feel small. I’ve been stuck. It made me think of how many people do that. They hit a roadblock and boom! Done. No more further movement. So they move on to something different, possibly allowing an amazing idea or project to fall by the wayside, never to be watered or tended or allowed to flourish. It…
