Just thinking out loud

Not spending very much time here and that's a good thing. Perhaps what I write will make more sense? I doubt it but...
I was thinking (that in itself is problematic) where I would be had I not moved to Delray Beach.
I know I would be much colder but other than that?
Probably would still be playing out on weekends at least.
I truly miss my friends but mostly stay in touch. Most are still on the correct side of the sod, myself included.
It has not exactly been a vacation here. While the weather is a lot better there is still a constant reminder of your mortality everywhere you turn down here. This is truly God's waiting room.
I have found a truly great friend that I can count on being there to lend an ear. That goes both ways.
I have finally started getting back into music on the entertainment side. Most people here had no idea that I could even whistle. The break did me a lot of good in that I finally cracked the "Writer's Block" thing.
Music is just oozing everywhere. I really need to get a fix on a water proof recorder. Most of the great ideas come in the shower. Jackie wonders why I rush from the shower to the studio in such a hurry. : )
Caitlyn has grown into a young woman and has learned how to use a gun. (Her boyfriend is a US Marine)
I can put mine back in the closet.
One other thing I have gained since moving to my new hometown. 5 dogs 4 of which are boxers rescued from the brink along with Caitlyn's genius Rottweiler wanna be who can open regular door knobs, 2 cats (rescued) and 2 guinea pigs named Chewy and Louie.
So, I have a busy day just attending to the zoo.
I have to say that it's still much easier than taking care of one child. If one of them gets out, it's really not a big deal unless it's the pigs. That could be a massacre.
If you need to run to the store you can just put the trouble makers in the kennel. I don't think you can do that with kids. Then again, who would know?
All in all, I love our little neighborhood and friends here. I miss all of you in the great north. Miss you brother and my bro in Kauai.
I hope this was a little lighter. Now you'll have to excuse me. I must attend to laundry and a dirty ceiling fan.
