Jimmy’s Pharm Facts : Try Something New
While eating Sunday lunch a few weeks ago, my daughter informed me that I was going to start a blog. “A what?” I asked. “A blog”, she replied. “A what”, I asked. “A blog!” she said again. After seesawing back and forth with “A what” and “A blog”, in exasperation, she finally said, “Let’s Google it”. Since Google is my wife’s best friend, I knew exactly what she was talking about!
I learned that a blog is basically writing a story, sharing my opinion, or maybe passing on a tidbit of information that I have learned throughout the years and posting it, in some form, on the internet. With pencil in hand, after having a momentary flash back to high school chemistry when, Mr. Ashcraft gave me a homework assignment I didn’t understand, and hearing my daughter repeating, “brainstorm”, I thought “OK, I can do this”.
So, I decided, since spring will be here before we know it, and we will see new life in our gardens, on the farm, and in nature, what a perfect time to try some other new things in my own life. Maybe I’ll take my wife to a new restaurant (that’s her other best friend), or teach my grandsons a new trade. Maybe I’ll take a trip somewhere I’ve never been or maybe I’ll take my Sunday afternoon drive down a road I’ve never taken. Who said, “You can’t teach an old dog a new trick?” Maybe you can try something new, too!
