Good advice, Randy. I've been waiting for an excuse to see a doctor, like the flu or something, because otherwise I seem to be reasonably healthy on the physical side. If I thought I had a serious problem, I'd go down to the docs in a minute.

Mentally is tough. I've always said that, "Any day you can work is a good day." I have always been ADHD and the busyness takes care of me. But, working all the time for all these years has taken its toll.

The biggest trouble with me is that once I master something (or even get it decent), I want to move on; get more. I've accomplished a lot in a lifetime except master finances. Oh well, one can't be good at everything.

HughR talks about addiction (to this forum). I'm addicted to accomplishment. It's damn hard to sit and watch. ADHD types are know to be on the average higher in IQ and higher in creativity. That's me to a T. Beyond that, I have no patience. None whatsoever. So, I don't travel or go out in public unless it's necessary.

I think beginning next week I'll start poking my head in at various businesses that do things creative. As it is, I drive through business parks when I have time just to see the grand variety of small businesses. This is OT to the OT, but everyone of those businesses represents the realization of someone's dream. Someone's creation. I couldn't be happier about that except a lot of them hit the wall and the dream is shattered. Especially this year.

One can take shelter or one can stand out in the storm.
