Good Things

All in all, it's not so bad here. There are some really awesome people. Many have stopped to offer me a ride at night. Sometimes I say thank you but walk anyway, other times I gratefully accept. I know they will never see my blog, but I want to say that I thank them all profusely for the kindness offered to a stranger.

I work with a really great guy, too. We get along well. We have different political views, but we can tease each other and not get angry, we discuss things and debate, and in general appreciate each others views.

I've met some good people out here, and my "daughter" is working near me as well, so when I get to see her it's always a treat.

Communication with friends and family in the states seems to have blossomed some. I keep in touch with several people and it's always such a pleasure. Some are by email, some on chat, and some periodically by phone. If any of you read this, you know who you are and that I love you very much.

I have spent my time off here watching some interesting movies, reading some good books, and sleeping. I've done some writing as well. Just wish I knew if what I wrote was good enough to publish. If anyone can tell me how to figure that out, I'd love to hear from you.

Well, it appears as though my "Good" list isn't as long as my "Bad" list. If I was making notes about pros and cons of a guy, I'd have to give him up!! Well, I know there are other good things... I'm able to help my son and his wife get a good solid start, I'm able to get some things taken care of so I can relax a bit when I can finally go home... and I know I'm loved. That is the best part. That pretty much says it all. So, I can end this post on a happy note!
