Welcome to the world,  Ethan Alexander Wehrle!

My younger brother, Mason, and his fiance Tracey, made me an Uncle yesterday around noon, with this fine baby boy.

Great things are ahead for you Nephew!

Remaining Focused

Im happy to be home after a day…a long, mentally arduous day.

Tired but pleasant, happy yet melancholy,…..I sit at my desk with just the slightest tilt of a grin (because I’m me). 

Im relaxed tonight. 

A few grays, a few bills, and a few years tacked on to an otherwise totally immature 20 year old id.  The body argues once in a while like a liberal whinging “whataboutmeeeeeee”,  so I take care of it’s mindless bulk with a few bench presses and curls. Stfu and salute!

…….But I have a huge meeting tomorrow morning (yes, on a Saturday and I know better to start a sentence with But.). 

Tired but pleasant, happy yet melancholy,…..I sit at my desk with just the grin. 

 Im relaxed tonight.

I have a “life-corner” approaching, in the ultimate business scenario with this fledgling company I’m 4 months into the fold. We’re growing and installing a new machine in a few weeks which will increase business 6 times it’s current level which is a challenge to support “old” business as it is.

Blah blah omit boring details, I admit I bury deep such a stress that my stomach’s curling in on itself. 

But I am relaxed.

Confusing heh?  Yeah me too.

I glide on the assumption everything is going to be ok,  and never accepting ok is good enough.  Strive for excellence, ….

……..hit a speed bump or approach a hill, all I have to do is throw out the dead weight – put the shifter into 4 wheel drive and floor the accelerator.  This is business. 

Mean and nasty gets it done.

If only personal life went so smooth. ;)

……………when I get one. 

Or is this what it’s all about?
