No clever or thought-provoking blog tonight. I am whipped. What a long day. I left home and traveled for four hours to my destination. My trip should have taken me three hours but I was caught in a blinding snow storm on the way. When I reached my destination, the person that I was to meet and help, decided to go on an appointment early and by himself. I, in essence, wasted four hours in an attempt to go help him. I then waited at a restaurant for over an hour for this person to show. He did not. He got the wrong city. I then decided to head back to the office to complete some reports that were due. I got stuck in a fifteen mile traffic jam that was caused by an "injury' accident. I left the office around 7:30 and went back to my camper. I am still working on a phone problem as I write this blog.
I have spoken to some people that have pondered how great it would be to not have to sleep. They often talk about how much could get accomplished. As for me, I am so thankful that God, in his infinite wisdom, gave us an opportunity to stop, re-charge our " batteries, take a break from the day, and start over the following morning.
I am definitely looking forward to a new day tomorrow.
