I’ve written before about change being the only constant in life,  and this weekend certainly brought that home for me yet again.  It turns out that the friend whom I had thought I had quite lost a week or two back is back in my life again.   I found that I accepted with reasonably good grace an explanation that ‘sometimes I just talk and my mouth gets me in so much trouble’.    I certainly do know how easy it is to talk your way out of a friendship.   And the fact is,  I was glad to hear from my friend again.   We spent most of the day together Friday and I’m glad we’re friends again.

I note that today is July 1st,  marking the half way point of my blog every day in 2012 challenge.    I counted them up and found that so far this year I have published 171 posts.    Today is the 184th day of 2012 and this is my 172nd post this year.    I have met the blog every day challenge 93.4% of the time so far.   Obviously,  some posts are better than others.    And 93% seems pretty good to me.   Even if I did take a couple of days off this week.    I know that I am not a scholar,  and suspect that there will plenty of time to contemplate eternity.    I frankly doubt that I will ever emigrate.    I apologize that I did not actually use Aldon Hynes‘ suggested three words.   Just for today,  I am satisfied just to have gotten a post up.
