I need a vacation!
Seriously, it’s been non-stop all year. These last couple weeks have been particularly trying. But United won today, it didn’t look convincing, but a win is a win. Then I went for my usual Saturday 10 miler. I was pretty happy with my run. Something about starting at the bottom of the hill I would live on if I could live in my house seems to make me run faster.
Then it was off on another day of buying things for and working on a house I can’t even live in. But it’s getting there. Today, appliances were hooked up. Except the microwave that was damaged on delivery. They are bringing a new one next week.
So while I was out running, with all this stress, and being technically homeless, and trying to get all this stuff done, I was thinking about the truly homeless. Hoping all my friends are following my suggestion and giving back and doing what they can to help the truly homeless. My state announced that it is going to work to end veteran homelessness and hopefully general homelessness in my state within the next couple years. Once again, poverty is a choice, a choice by us, as a society, to harm other people. To make sure other people don’t have enough. It really is time to change that. We all have to stand up and do some things different to make it happen. So let’s start today! Have fun, keep running, and remember: If Gil can run, the so can you!
