Lent and Procrastination

Okay, its been a while since I last posted.  I had started a post related to Lent:

Lent had begun and just as in years past I found myself pondering what I should give up for the season.  Growing up, this challenge was generally short lived and usually focused on food or beverage.  Later years expanded to include not using vulgar language.  I have not actively tried to give something up for lent for a while and decided that this year I would try a new twist on this annual sacrifice.  This year I am going to give up procrastinating about communicating.  Specifically, staying in touch with friends and family.  

The posting date of this entry tells you that Lent is over but I wanted to post this and follow up.  I did make progress with my aspirations to increase my communication with friends and family.  I went to visit friends that I had not seen for years.  We gathered for food and drink and each brought the others up to speed on their lives.  The truly cool part was sitting with people and hearing that we all had common world experiences that included work, family, and life.  From the humorous parts of getting older to the frustrations of the economy.   We all work too much and no one has time for the gym even when sed gym is either at the office or across the street from the house ( You know who you are)   

Maybe next Lent.
