Rant #3,196: Sail Away

This Rant is going to be kind of short—

But not kind of sweet.

I am going to take a few days off from the Blog to get my head together.

There has been a lot of things going on in my life lately, much of which I have spoken about here.

But there is a lot of other stuff that I have not mentioned at all here.

I have to get my hands, my head and my consciousness around all of those things, and I figure that today, on my son’s 28th birthday, is the time to start doing so.

So I am going to take some time off from writing this weekday blog, which has been a godsend for me in so many ways.

I just need to put things in the right order … and there is a method to this madness, which I will explain to you when I finally get back to writing again.

I figure that if I can take maybe a week or so off from doing this writing, I will have a clearer head and be able to pick it up again when I am ready to do so.

It should be a seamless transition.

No, there is nothing physically or mentally wrong with me that I am not telling you about.

I simply need to take a deep breath, and when I come back, take in the fresh air (cough, cough), and I will be as good as ever.

It will take just about a week or eight days or maybe even 10 days, but I feel that I have to hit the pause button right now.

I promise you that I will be back … just not tomorrow, or for the rest of the week into next week.

I generally don’t write the blog on the weekend, so I just look at this as an extended weekend off for me, with every day being a Saturday and Sunday related to not having to write any entries.

I guess you can say that I have given myself my own personal holiday to rev up my motors again.

I could go into rerun mode here, which I actually did several years ago during another such period, but this time, I would rather step away entirely, but I promise, it won’t be for that long--

Just enough for me to get refreshed.

So as we move from the end of August into early September, let me put everything on my own personal boat and temporarily sail away into the sunset … .
