The Winds of Change

Change... That's all I ever hear! I've had to learn to adapt to changing situations just in time for the whole house to collapse on me. My younger brothers are growing up... fast. They've invested in some pretty old cars, but with some of my brothers' TLC, those old cars ('94- '95's) have become things of beauty. My middle sibling has just invested in some coolant for the A/C in his car, which, by the way, is the only vehicle to have such in two years. My dad finally got the Escort towed away. I'll miss it. I went on my first Boy Scout campout in it, and the majority thereafter. Oh, well, I'll just put the license plate up on my wall with all the others. My brothers are working jobs part- time, and doing school. Having little memory, I can't remember their schedules, so I often make the mistake of calling up the stairs, to somebody's who's not home. My memory re-call has shortened to a minute and a half, so often, I am redundant in asking questions, and I hate doing that to people. Personaly, my schoolwork has been ramped up, and I'm rising to the challenge, getting done this week with my assignments before noon. New too, is my CPAP Machine, which I've taken to like a fish in water. It's a machine that helps you sleep at night without snoring, and it turns out that that I have a few, little episodes during the night where I snore lightly, but I'm a border case. All I know is that I feel better, and that the pockets under my eyes, which I mistook were for my wallet and keys, are clearing up, and I'm not as tired as I used to be. Not all change is for the worse. A lesson I had to learn early in my childhood. I was afraid of everything, and now, at times, I feel like I could take on the world. Talk about a 180 degree swing on the compass. So the solution to changes, at least to me, who has a big problem with it, is to make a small adjustment in kind.

Mr. Gibbs: Is he now? 'Leverage,' says you. 'I think I feel a change in the wind,' says I.
