Oh MY! I have horrible news - I have done the math. ten thousand hours, that mythical milestone to get good at something - at my rate of three hours a day (which is an exaggeration) times 5, d will take me twelve years to get good at Blogging.
So, if I had practiced the piano for eight hours a day, like Mr. Bedford said, and all concert pianist know to be true - four years would have been my ticket to the stage.
This is a fabulous math lesson to teach kids in grade seven.
"Hey kids - do you have any idea what you want out of life? Ten thousand hours of dedication will get you to the chance to participate".
Seriously. Is this really guaranteed? I struggle with the idea of parenting, and how to motivate kids to try their best. I attended a wonderful surprise wedding last week - my friend who has tried her best her whole life, and has been bashed and crushed and punched, got married. She faced breast cancer, and never complained. She now has faced ovarian cancer. She did not need 10,000 hours of practice in fighting the cancer. She has faced all of her difficulties without complaining, wearing a smile and always talking about pleasant things. Am I missing the point about the axiom?
I will work on what I am trying to express for another 11 years, my time is up for tonight.
And that is how I learned that to be a part time author ain't good.

Oh my goodness!!! What I have done since I last posted!!!
I delivered the sequence of events regarding my tale, and I AVOIDED ALL CONVERSATIONS that would involve any negotiationsa taking place! As a sage of how to talk to 'Devils' (a skill I developed going through my hell) I have taken a break!! Just for a quick update....The Magician, sold the Alabama house...we hired a mover, there were some complications, I drove with Natalie in my Canadian tagged vehicle, as I feared having the jet asset (the easy option) damaged by Hail, packed up, shipped out, and today, after spending a brutal day, sat down to watch NBC - and Lester HOLT
Passing thought about my Blog.
Some of my friends asked "why are you blogging?", "who do you want to reach out to?"
"did you give up blogging for Lent?" and my favourite
"please continure to Blog, I like reading your S ___t!"
I have been faithful to NBC nightly news since Brian Williams fell from Grace. I have always liked how Anne Curry and Lester Holt read the news - and so I try to support them by sending emails to NBC and watching to boost ratings.
TONIGHT MAKES ME BLOG!!!
Hey America!!! As a Canadaian - I have no right to comment on the way you conduct business....but the twenty dollar bill story just make me go insane.
What group started this STUPID STUPID STUPID IDEA?
As a woman who has talked about the Sisters of Loretto from the 16th Century,
duh?
You are changing a TWENTY DOLLAR BILL?
Canada eliminated a dollar bill and the 2 dollar bill with a cheap coin.
"MAKE IT RIGHT ON THE MONEY"???? is the closing quote from the correspondent?
Dear people of Earth,
Money, is not the answer to correct the evils of this world. We have bad boys, and accomplices who happen to be women, who continue to do all sort of super bad things. May I suggest, after the ordeal that I witnessed and lived through last year, I understand that MONEY CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY.
You cannot right a wrong, nor re-write history by changing your past, or erasing it America. Why was Andrew Jackson put on the TWENTY IN THE FIRST PLACE? We live in a world where men abuse women, and call it religion, we watch racism do its evils since 1492, to today, WW 2, with ethnic cleansing, and WOMEN are still waiting to celebrate the Centential anniversary of the right to vote in the Western countries!?!?!?!?
WHY NOT PUT A FEMALE ON THE ONE MILLION DOLLAR BILL AND THUS, GIVE WOMAN, THE VALUE SHE IS WORTH?
WHY NOT TELL THE REST OF THE WORLD, WITHOUT SACRIFICING SONS AND DAUGHTERS THAT YOU SEND INTO THE BATTLE FIELD, " We love and respect women".
What the funky are you thinking???
People of America - and NBC???
You need Jerry Seinfelf to crack the code of America! He could see the absurd.
