Hand Socks
When you put your mind to it; I mean really put some honest thought into the deep things and get a more focused slant on what really matters you could think about gloves. Bear with me here. I was moving through my home today and caught a glimpse of the house -hold glove collection hung on the wall in one of those multi-pocketed plastic shoe tree sheets that hangs on the back of the closet door. There are dozens of them. I noticed that in this vast and varied collection there are all sizes, types and colors ranging from petite pink little girls gloves with the frillies and ponies to the well worn leather gloves that have many scars testifying to their protecting of the hands they covered. Stories of cold weather, gardening, things hauled, loads wrestled, tires changed, snowball fights and snazzy fashion numbers that go oh so well with the elegant gown my little flower bought for the big wingding at the forum. I realized that here is a good indication of true wealth. The myriad of children’s gloves well worn, torn and stiff from repeated soakings denote healthy kids who take life by the reigns and go forth brave and wide eyed to experience what the seasons have to offer. The gardening gloves tell of times spent kneeled in the Earth coaxing life from the soil and learning the value of sweat equity. The worn leather work gloves with the holes in the finger pads and the shine in the palms from ropes that passed through a strong grip – of tools wielded in skill and understanding to provide for a loving family. I thank the Good Lord for these gloves that took the brunt of the abuse to protect the hands they cover until they finally wear to the point of disintegration. Times are good when you have gloves.

Testing of the metal
Today was a challenge. It was to be the glorious first day working on site. I arrived with vim and vigor and found the owner and fellow partners distressed. Our client is dragging their feet and no money has arrived yet.
I'm opting to treat this as just a bump in the road. Simply an obstacle to overcome. Monday gives us all a new week and opportunity to grow and advance. I'll cruise until Monday. Then if nothing has changed somebody is going to have to deal with me.

Out of my comfort zone
I have made the leap. Hell, I ran for the edge and dove! This new business is going to be huge! Granted, I am a bit helter-skelter at the moment but as the tiller finds my hand the course will run true and the money will come.
Happiness buys money!

In the name
When my little flower and I were first married her friends and my old acquaintances would encounter her and ask her; "You married Tiny? What's it like?"...
Little did she know...
Let the adventure BEGIN!
