Just to let readers know, I’ve decided to take it easy for a little while so I can start writing more thoughtful pieces again. I’ve got plenty of ideas, and am eager to put them out there, but sometimes you need a bit of R&R. Life’s not bad, but as I get older I need to resynch from time to time, get some fresh air, and just sleep easy.

So, if anyone wants to send in written contributions, this is good time.

Just a few days rest ought to be enough for me, and I’ll be posting some in the meanwhile, but I really want to write some good, thoughtful stuff soon, and I’ve got to refresh myself for that. No point in pushing myself to burnout before I’m 40 — I want to be in for the long haul.

Hope everyone else is enjoying the autumn, which is such a beautiful season. Have some hearty food and comfy evenings as the nights get chilly and the leaves turn brilliant colors. At least that’s my plan for the next few days.

Stay tuned — I’m not going anywhere.
