Here’s a challenge: Stand a baseball bat on one end and gently place your forehead on the handle, tightly grasping the grip with both hands. Rotate about its axis a dozen times. Release.

Now walk in a straight line.

It’s been several years since my last blog post. In that time I lost my longtime significant other, gained a grandson, and got caught in a turnstile trying to find a new career path. I am fortunate to have found two part-time jobs that are challenging, interesting, and provide a service to the communities in my area. While free time (and energy) are finite “resources,” I’d like to focus them on productive, beneficial, and worthwhile pursuits going forward.

At the dawn of a new year, I’ve resolved to return to this blog and realize the modest objectives established at its outset.

As I careen off on this new path, I extend my best wishes to all in 2017.
