don't die with cash, die with memories

some months ago i gave myself a deadline to quit work. well perhaps it was a line in the sand. I figured that Anzac day would mark the great reduction in mowing income, & the loss  of my "best customers". 
here's how its going.
* D day was 21 days ago.
* it has rained ever since, I have been unable to work.
* those three customers are still active.

so apart from a great reduction in income, I still have a responsibility to those customers & feel obliged. but o have more time to get boat work done. 
but, I really feel like time is rushing by. to drive the point home, I'm reminded daily that younger people are at risk of lethal diseases & accidents, & people even younger than me are failing on their health. the option to go sailing is something that may be snapped from my grasp.
I just have to keep pushing. Keep getting a boat work done, keep visiting more frequently. Keep stoking my dream!

Some surfers I know have died or been treated for skin cancer, so it's a vocational hazard.  Added to this, I have a genetic weakness towards skin cancer. My great grandmother passed in midlife & her daughter, my grandmother, had several skin grafts on her nose to manage skin cancer.  Last month my younger brother Pete had a ...

mass political deception

On the day a gunman nicked ex president Trump's ear the world politcians decried violence as evil, undemocratic & so on, more than 39 people were killed in Palestine. These events highlight mass hypocrisy across the world with regards violence & race.  No one in the media industry will ever mention this hypocrisy.
