Happy 51 to Me

Was about to post my obligatory ODIS picture for my 51st birthday, but thought I'd check in on my post from last year. Realized I had damn near the same breakfast, and same start to the day (only now the little boys are 3 & 4).

Great start.

The difference this year is I spent all day with the boys and the only work I did was handled in quick shots from my phone (primarily via text), and it ended with dinner with my boys Nik & Damien and my grand-daughter Saylor, then home for a coupla games of pool with my son Chris and a Bloody Mary.

For anyone interested, you can read last year's post for other details....including music, my recurring dream of dying at 54 (I have 3 years left, eh?), my abs at 50, and more. But today (and I may add an addendum later), I leave you with today's ODIS photo.

Cheers!

Fall 2015 Lifestyle Challenge

Here we are...October 2015! Time for another challenge!

For those new to the challenges, it isn't to compete against others. It's to push yourself to greater heights, have some company & inspiration along the way, and a few ideas the help get us focused. For example, you can use this waving of the analytical knife to help organize your goals:

1) Exercise - Set a specific plan or goal(s). Keep us posted weekly (or more) on your progress!

2) Creativity - Music, art, writing, acting...set a goal to complete by month's end. Keep us posted!

3) Personal life - Re-affirm your personal relationships, get to that project/chore you've been avoiding, or just read a book you've always wanted to read!

4) Professional life - Set a work goal or change jobs or....just tell us what it is and keep us posted!

I'll post my goals below, and then provide weekly up-dates...

How about YOU?
