You only get a few of these in your life

High School homecoming football game — Last night.

You only get a few of these in your life.

Attending last night’s Homecoming Game

Attending last night’s Homecoming game may seem inconsequential in real time, however, looking back, you’ll realize that you only get four opportunities to attend a High School Football homecoming game.

Much of life is like this.

Much of it is not.

Best to be mindful of which is which.

Work hard to buy the best things you can afford

Disney Institute speakers — Google search for, you guessed it, “Disney Institute”.

Working hard to buy the best things you can afford is the American way.

Until it’s not.

And trust me, it’s not.

Learn how to know when enough is enough.

If you can afford an $18k car or a $36k car, lean strongly on the $18k car.

As early as possible, embrace “reduce, reuse, recycle”, and, “live within your means”.

i’m fascinated by the home results of setting a 10-year deadline

i’m fascinated by the home results of setting a 10-year deadline.

Reduce, reuse, recycle.

Shed.

Go paperless.

Think, “If i moved into a one-bedroom assisted living apartment, what would i be able to comfortably take with me?”

Still have 21 months to par down.

Getting there.

PS. Did i mention how ecstatic i am that i made this decision because i have a “serious” deadline?

In a perfect world, i’ll live well beyond 60.

Not planning on it though.

Crazy thing is, i haven’t even begun to think about what i’ll do if i make it past 60.

You may call me a dreamer (or crazy, or stupid, or…) but i challenge anyone to dream small and see if you are happy in the end.

It really helps to like the people you work with

Horse barn — The temperature (giant, yellow, round thermometer on left) just below 90 at 3pm…Fall is in the air.

It really helps to like the people you work with. Otherwise, spending the night without a change of clothes and no toiletries would be challenging to bear.

They made it work.

And there were horses.

Note: The Saturday “all-day” school assignment wasn’t supposed to take a second day, so no provisions for spending the night were taken by the other two students.
