Moving The Cat
The whole view from my deck.
Yesterday the Homer High boys soccer team pitched in and got the bulk of my stuff up to the new condo. Today I finished it up and moved the cat. You can move the cat but that doesn’t mean the cat has moved. She is still exploring and deciding whether she’ll allow it.
Tomorrow is return to old condo for cleaning day. Hopefully, Maddy will get used to the place by Sunday when I leave for the reunion tour. I hate to leave so shortly after turning her life upside down. She will probably convince the lady feeding her while I’m gone to take her home. Either that or she’ll save up her pissedofftitude to vent on me after I get back.
As you can see, the weather is perfect for traveling.
So far I've reached acceptable proficiency at the following, in chronological order: Silversmith, infantryman/door gunner, helicopter pilot, fireman, carpenter, residential contractor, FAA Air Traffic Control Specialist and crotchety old retired guy. Currently, I'm learning to fly again and that is what this is all about. 7/7/2020 edit: As I have had the opportunity to reflect (old people do that a lot) on my actual proficiency level at the above occupations, I feel adjustments are in order. The term "acceptable" depends on the observer, their own proficiency and experience level. Acceptable to me might be woefully deficient to the master. I think it would be more accurate to claim that I have earned a living wage at all of these occupations but never got rich. Actually, I feel that I have gotten rich at the last one. I have what I need and am profoundly grateful for all of it. The future looks bright indeed, as I have learned to fly again. For that I have all of you to thank. Thank You!
Good to see you in this blog. Aloha, Jeff
