I'll be getting back on news and politics, maybe some science later this week, but for now I'm really enjoying all the extra time I get to spend at home, even though I'm back to work.  The other day, I woke up no earlier than I would have had to if I were going to my old job, but I had time to shop for groceries and drive an hour to get home and STILL was there by six, in plenty of time to play with my children and sit down to eat dinner with my family.

A year ago, I didn't think that there was any job on the planet that I could get with my skill set that wouldn't require me to work 55 plus hours a week to support my family.  I think with all my new time, I might have to take up a new sport.  Maybe learn some golf and help my boy win some golf trophies.

After, of course, I get my car running.
