Well, almost Friday.  I don't know why I say "thank God its Friday" when in fact, the weekends are the busiest times of the week for me!  Trips to Home Depot for the one thing you need and then back to Home Depot for the other one thing you forgot to get!

I remember years ago when I left the service.  All I owned was the clothes on my back.  I gave everything away...I mean everything which included my stereo and record collection.  I felt free.  No worries even though I had no job.  Free, even though I didn't know where my next meal was coming from.  Well, I did have a few hundred dollars that I saved and I didn't give that away.

Then I started on the road to hell!  By that I mean, I started get "stuff" again.  Stuff that now is packed in the attic, basement, garage and any other part of the house where shelves are so overloaded!  Where did my freedom go?  Many times I thought I would get a dumpster and just get rid of it all.  My wife would kill me, but still the days of leaving the service and the freedom I had "haunt" me into thinking I should get the dumpster.

Perhaps I should change the TGIF to TGFE... Thank God For Easter!
