Yesterday I was writing as I have been considered with regards to one position as I mentioned earlier with a place called The Royal Tyrell Museum. Meanwhile one of my friends in another city has not gotten back to me with regards to meeting up with him and staying with him and his wife.
So I have been staying at the Best Western and working on things with regards to meeting with a person that is my mentor. So I am not on vacation or a voyage anymore as once by coincidence something happened with a tremendous partaking. I have been now using a hotel as an office and the journaling of this voyage is now over with. I am not down I just see that a few friends are married and in time in which they had it hard, I had calls and so as I have not heard from Syd, I decided to say here as I had a call yesterday morning asking if I would really consider taking on this position. So I have a few friends that are doing the all or nothing thinking. And meanwhile I am maintaining my cadence and upon one telephone call I will be off to meet with one gent that groomed my foundation in my work.
So that all being said - I am not down but this is a challenge.
I have witnessed so many relationships that have ended and now I see amicable men that are doing everything for their wives. There are several things I could write on but most of all, I am just wishing to get on with it.
I am not sure if you have ever felt that way. Where you wish to have answer. Regardless of what the decision is, just make it and never waiver, but there could be more involved that I don't know about. As I already find that all three of these particular friends have situations going on in their marriage and I understand they are busy - however I don’t think they realize how busy I am as well. From a friend or from a company - you just want a decision to be made so that you can maintain your journey. Living within "waiting" is not easy. But you just do it and you maintain was wrote previous to this. Never waiver from what you wish to do, but at the same time ensure that there is a plan and understand that you’re human.
I don't know about you - I certainly am.
So here I am in my office in my suite. In a small town. Bored, I am bored.
No offence to those that live in a small town but tired of a hotel and just want something to bite into other than McDonalds!

Small towns are usually boring, I lived in one for a few years and that was enough to keep me in the big city for the rest of my life. Eating at McDonalds doesn't help either, it sounds depressing. Try to make the most of it, there must be a good restaurant somewhere over there, good night.
ReplyDeleteChallenging yes, depressing no - a tad of frustration yes. As I am almost there. If I think it - I can/may happen. Gracias amiga
ReplyDeleteIf you take the position will it mean you will be moving to this small town?
ReplyDeleteMarriage does present issues,lol. Even in the best of times, spouses often want to do something different than the other and sounds like maybe these aren't the best of times for your friends.
There is one thing that is of real challenge, when you are in wait, and you do not know how long that is going to be. But from one fellow traveler to another, when one travels, waiting of unknown length is expected. The trick is to always have a plan, or worse that can be is to catch up with rest, of body and mind. A day at a time. But like a firemen, is ready to be on the go at moments notice.
ReplyDeleteAbout that enough MD, may I interest you with delish meals without cooking? If so check this link:

Yes but I would be travelling internationally and would be one hour from a large city, and with regards to one friend in particular he has placed 60,000 dollars into his wife's business and always was the one to follow everything she did. When it came to a stance that he asked for a councellor, along with providing everything and listening to her - when he went from being amicable to trying to foster the relastionship - she then started the so often scenario of "I am a victim". It's not about the gender - however it's ironic Norma on how much I have seen this is the case with good men doing all they can to have a relationship survive. I think men have a different placement within this new era. I believe in women's rights, but I don't believe in this victimized mentality.
ReplyDeleteSmiling that food looks good!
ReplyDeleteYeah that is what it is bareheart - I am ready to go. I love this town but now it's time for the next directive.
Move over MacDonalds!
may God give wisdom, knowledge and understanding that His purpose and will be done to you. God peace be with you and enjoy life given you....
ReplyDeleteG'day Jack & friends,
ReplyDeleteWould appear to me that it is not the town which is causing the boredom and sense of idleness, it is that you have placed the next few days in the control of others, thus rendering you helpless to follow your planned journey, this must be a very difficult pill to swallow after regaining your freedom so recently, while the trouble your friends are having at the moment just accentuate the negative side of relying on trusted partners, & or friends, just think positive & go with the flow, all being well in 3 months time you will wonder what you were worried about , & stay away from Maccers hahahah
Thank you very much!
ReplyDelete" There will be a time you look back and this and you can laugh about it, or gain from it " ~ a man which is my father. Told to me when I was entering into 1st grade and did not want to go to school. ~ smiles~.
ReplyDeleteThere is a young man here crawling around my feet, who I think would benefit from such wisdom. I'll give him a couple more years to think about it.
ReplyDeleteWendy, good analysis indeed. I'll venture into your pages to for more ... and Jack, thank you for letting me meet, Wendy :) :) :)
Hers'a a thought. Ask the people at McDonald's where they eat!
ReplyDeleteAh, small towns are always boring no matter what people say. (And the ones who toot them have always lived in a small town and never lived in a town with more than a thousand people, so they don't have a clue.)
The worst part about a small town is you can't get lost or try a new road. (Think about that!)
On the other hand, now may be your time to simplify your life as a small town offers. They don't have the big malls or large parks or tons of restaurants. Perhaps it's time to embrace the solitude?
Ah, I'd be bored too, I'm not kidding you, it would drive me crazy too!
