I'm Back... Finally

To my dear readers...

I am finally able to write again with regularity. I very much apologize for my absence. I have experienced a lot of changes in my life over the last month or so... life-changing events which alter one's life irrevocably. It wasn't just one thing at a time. Everything sort of just happened all at once and for awhile, I couldn't function very well. Life happened in a big way.

The company I worked for was sold, and all of us in the Houston office did not have very many good alternate options. My youngest daughter and her husband moved to London to do graduate study, so this town now seems not a little empty. I damaged my wife's Honda and it is now in the shop. And last Wednesday, I fell asleep at the wheel and totalled my own automobile. For the moment, I am still without a job. So there you have it. Just about the time I was able to psychologically deal with one issue, I was hit with another... and another... and another.

I am finally coming to terms with the last auto accident, grateful to be alive and grateful for each new day now. I am very grateful also that my head has cleared and I am able to think with some clarity and able to once again move on with my life. To be sure, I have not fully recovered psychologically from the auto accident, but that will happen over time.

I am extremely grateful that I have the strength and inclination to sit down and post my thoughts once again to my blog. This is one of the several things in my life that are truly pleasurable and which enable me to feel alive once again. And I am most thankful I am alive today.

Thank you for returning as a visitor. You are always welcome to insidemyworldhfireman.blogspot.com.

Kindest regards,

Howard Fireman
