After a long Christmas break, full of sickness and, thankfully, strong recoveries, I’m back….back in the mail jeep….back making my long loop….delivering the mail.

Now, don’t let me give the impression that I don’t know that I’m blessed to be able to do what I do.

My job is great and I better make sure that I always know that.

I need to know that what I do is pretty great.

It’s great to have a job where I have a chance of supporting my family.

I’ve been on the other side….where the job fell a little short of what we might have wanted.

This is a lot better.

But….wouldn’t it be something to do something where we could live anywhere in the world and still support our needs?

“Needs” is kind of an open-ended term….but, there are places in the world where “needs” can be satisfied for a smaller amount of money.

It’s good for kids to have some stability.

It’s good to see the same tree when you open your door.

It’s good to travel, though.

This is when the itchy feet take over….when I’m getting ready to strap myself back into the harness….get in front of the plow.

This will pass….this will pass…..this will…

Maybe I should work at something where we can be firmly planted….but able to uproot whenever we wanted?

Who ever figures it all out?

Here’s another video….

There’s lots of videos of people talking about how to do what you want to do….where you want to do it.
