Irritable and Impressed

I'm very irritable today. Not exactly sure why but I'm just super cranky.

I saw this on the web and found it a great way to recycle some old foam. I might make a few of these ear bud holders. They would be good for my other computer cables too!

I have many personal experiences about not listening. I’m sure you do as well. One such instance of me not listening was when I left my dad’s tools out in the back yard ( not the first or the last time ).

Most of my life I’ve criticized others for how things have been done or not done. In the back of my mind I’m thinking I could do it better. This might be some genetic trait or it could be how I was raised, I’m not sure. I do remember as a child my father saying “If you want it done right, Do it yourself”.

I do my best to listen to others and I challenge myself to allow others to control ar...
