As I putz around into the evenings on my server array after hours I take pause to consider all the benefits this has given me. That ecstatic acquisition of technological informaton once unknown to me is internalized.
Whereas I had superficial comprehension in two areas critical to my now ... there is virtually complete understanding.
So Christmas finds me really wanting to do a lot of shopping.
I can't get Mama to tell me what she wants. All I can do is get her something I think she can use and call it a day. We will be visiting some of the children in the clan either shortly before or thereafter and therein lay the bulk of my shopping duties.
Then there is the workaday world and that different set of duties which take precedent in my life.
All in all this Christmas season has me feeling grateful. I'm appreciative of those problems I have solved. I'm thankful for those challenges which remain. Mostly, I just want continued growth and health and to be there for those who really need me. That list dwindles every day.
