Well I suppose I can get even better at keeping myself company,and I can be thankful that my son has the ability to live vicariously. I find the lack of any response to my query ( to date ) instructive in and of itself. It reinforces my thinking that I am going to have to continue to rely pretty much on my own creativity , insight .and sense of humor to deal with a world that while much smaller then I would like it to be is still my world . I will make it work for me ,and if I turn up a blind alley every now and then ,I still have the capacity to retrace my steps , evaluate my efforts ,and decide to keep on keeping on.
