So my behind has been dragging for the last couple of weeks. I have been sitting on my pity pot.

We lost our old dog at 15 years old on the 4th. I lost a good friend two days later. Two friends are in the hospital. And I broke my glasses this morning. My motivation level has plummeted.

Well, I just read a post from Loes and one from Joseph. They lit a fire under my butt.

I could sit here and wallow in my misery, feeling sorry for myself or get it together, write a little bit, get my camera out and take some photos for my other website.

So, motivation. I have to remind myself that 1) I'm still alive and that I was blessed to have had both wonderful souls in my life. 2) I am not the one in the hospital. I am till healthy, kicking and mean as ever (my wife will attest to that). 3) Our weather has warmed up considerably. I'm not freezing my ass off. ( For you baseball fans, Spring Training starts next week). 4) My Broncos won the Super Bowl 5) We just got a 2-year-old rescue dog to fill the void left by our old girl.

So. life is not so bad after all. It's a matter of perspective. Glass half empty, or half full! Find the positive in all things.
