“There is no more miserable human being than one in whom nothing is habitual but indecision... ...Full half the time of such a man goes to the deciding, or regretting, of matters which ought to be so ingrained in him as practically not to exist for his consciousness at all. If there be such daily duties not yet ingrained in any one of my readers, let him begin this very hour to set the matter right."
- William James, Principles of Psychology (1890)
So, this post, the first in over a month, is to string a small collection of words together (this very hour!). And if I continue to do this, the habit of blogging will take root again. It doesn't seem like much, but asking very little of myself is a kindness.

In another victory of motivation over sloth, my love of roadside attractions (specifically Rock City, TN) resulted in me repainting my shed in countryside barn advertising. Still needs some work, but this a pleasing start.
