My writing in Puerto Vallarta 11/25/19.

I read an article then I changed/edited this on the bottom

“The Benefits of Difficult Situations
We should be especially grateful for having to deal with annoying people and difficult situations, because *without them we would have nothing to work with. Without them, how could we practice patience, exertion, mindfulness, loving-kindness or compassion? It is by dealing with such challenges that we grow and develop.*”

Edit by RHM:

*without them we would have nothing to work with. How could we practice patience, exertion, mindfulness, loving- kindness or compassion? It is by dealing with such challenges that we grow and develop.*

There’s lot of things to do. I like challenges with practice and learn. I listen, play music, enjoy nature, talk with new people. This could be challenging as well. Difficult & annoying people can too challenging. Usually I just leave with these people. No difficult situations.
I like a little bit with challenges.

Rainy.

Soundhole ribs tonight. I've got the neely's sauce down pat. Grated onion (instead of powder) is one improvement--and I measure weights instead of things like cups and tablespoons.

Good morning. Off to the desert in a while for an early outing. It'll be about 50-70 here, a nice day before a storm comes through this week and things get wet and much cooler. Enjoy your day.

A haiku in honor of tbob:

I am so tired
Where did all my money go
My back hurts

Good morning.

Supposed to be sunny, high 50s and light winds today. I could put some more paint on the barn this afternoon, or not.

I think my ambition is about a quart low. Maybe more coffee will help.

It's Monday if it matters to you. Try to have a good one.

Just walked into my new office. Pretty cramped. Myself and 2 other docs and MA's all around. No problems yet. 20 minute longer commute.

Ominous weather forecast here -- we could get 6 inches of snow overnight Tue-Wed, with blowing and drifting after that. Things look even more ominous the farther south you go, really bad news for travelers heading to, say, Iowa for Thanksgiving.

Drippy wet outside. Mid forties, now. The coffee is readying I need some. It’s cold and dark out. Winter. You can have it. Yes, I know, winter hasn’t actually started, which makes it even worse.

Apropos of nothing, last night I was perusing the wares at Wildwood Guitars webste. There is a beautiful Lester ‘56 reissue gold top painted by Tom Murphy with P-90s for 6.4k. Sigh. Pretty guitar.

I am awake.

Skiff of fresh snow on the ground and a short week on tap for the shop. Supplies for the big Thursday feast have been procured.

Been playing a lot of acoustic guitar as of late. I can once again pick hot coals up with the fingertips of my left hand.
