Reboot.

It’s been ages since I’ve written anything for this blog; it’s almost as if I’ve abandoned it without a proper farewell.

I can lay a portion of the blame on simple laziness. Things have been a bit hectic lately – with the selling of the house, the shipping of the balikbayan boxes to Sibulan and the selling of one of our vehicles. Still, I could have found time to write something.

One thing for certain; I'm tired of writing about politics in general and the POTUS in particular.

.

I won’t say my time has been completely wasted; I have been doing quite a lot of reading. Knut Hamsun-Robert Hichens- Aldous Huxley and Phillip Gibbs -to name just four writers whose works I’ve been devouring.

 

June 20^th will be my last day as a proletariat; I’ll be officially retired. We won’t be leaving for Philippines until July 1^st. I’ll have no more excuses. I’ll have to put the proverbial nose to the grindstone (is it OK to use out of date phrases when I add the word ‘proverbial’?).

This is a rather slow re-start. I know I’ll have to do more as time goes on. But, I do have to start somewhere.
