I GUESS I GET TO KEEP THE CANDY..... One today is worth two tomorrows.~ Benjamin Franklin ;)~ Isnt that the simplest of truths? I know for me, today has just gone way too damn fast, and theres NEVER TOO MUCH time for me to waste, lately, on top of it. But the good news is that I have faith that there are more of these kind of days for me to experience..... I just finished my weekly Skype call with Baby~Huey, who warmed my Heart tonight when he told me that he misses playing Texas hold em with his Dad. He then had a make shift table all set up and we played, talked and laughed while we watched Wwe Wrestling together. I miss my boy....But at least we can interact this way until I can get him up here for a visit for real... I will miss not being with him over Halloween because its my favorite time of year, but the flip side of it means I get to eat all of this candy I bought with him in mind... I was so wound up from my great day yesterday that getting my butt up for furniture moving was quite the ordeal. I ended up with some great additions that included a huge kicking leather rocker recliner and a computer desk and chair that will be the perfect place to start to sit down and start to write....and write....and write..... I do have around 110, 000 words already done, but at this point its not formatted enough to make any sense to me, let alone an editor...If anything it definitively gives me a winter project to keep me busy in between work, and hanging with some new friends that I look forward to spending some quality time with.... Speaking of that, I did have a great lunch with my friend Mike today. He graciously offered up his truck for furniture picking up and he is fun to be around because he is a newbie here as well. His story of the journey to Alaska puts me in the dust every time I hear it told. he was living in Ohio, fed up with things in his life, sitting at home watching the show buying Alaska on TV when he said to himself, Why cant I do that?...Then after sleeping on it, he woke up and asked himself again, Why cant I do that?... A week later he and his three Labradors jumped in his truck and headed up 5000 miles to Anchorage, and the rest is on going history! I know three doggies in the front of the truck, and 10 days of driving...Now thats a story! The really cool part, however, is that he also talks about how happy he is here. We share that same excitement of our new lives, and the fact that we are now, truly, living it here in this place... I dont know how many days Ill end up having here...and whether its 1000, a million, or just one more....Its just NEVER TOO MUCH for my soul...and its pursuits...and like Luther sings about....I just dont want to stop...no matter how many it is, or how much I get from each and every one of them...I like this ride, and yes, I never want to get off... But, as with anything else, sometimes the fun has to end...and tonight my tired little puppies need some rest...I have another fabulous, fun and adventurist week ahead of me...You can count on me participating in all of it!!!! So....Good night from the Last Frontier...and stay tuned....cause it just gets better from here...this...is only the beginning.... Your friend, Lance ..... we continue because....we can youtu.be/ASttVgRz7ic
