My Hammer
8/01/2010Note: I titled this “My Hammer” but it is not actually my hammer. Read the last paragraphs for explanation.
Day 80:
The Feast! The Frenzy!

Let us sit and watch the snow, as we hypothermiate.

It’s seriously SERIOUSLY cold out. I walked to work (about a third of a mile, not a big deal) this morning. It was 1 degree outside. Weather.com said “Feels like -14.” It is an experience.
Oh wait, yes, we still have our Christmas lights up.
Day 81:

I titled this one “When the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail”.
The more I think about it, the more I see instances in my life where my single mindedness has led me to just do what I always do to fix a problem. Seriously, sometimes like “fix” like “I’m going to the hardware store, need to fix somethin’” sort of fix, and like, “Ugh, I gotta fix this issue with so and so”.
I think the common route is retreat. For others and me. Sometimes it’s just easier to wait things out. I want to be proactive though.
Anyways. (I want to always say anyways now because it bugs my sister [should be anyway])
So, what’s your hammer?
