High Plains Blogger had hit a slump, I am willing to acknowledge, but that slump might be about to reignite into a new energy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

That’s my hope.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I have found a new rhythm to writing and posting items on this forum. I shall explain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For years I had prided myself in my prolific writing. I was able to crank out three, four, five entries daily. My friends said they marveled at the frequency of my blog posts. I appreciate the good word, but it wore me out.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I have decided to scale it back to a single entry on most days. Sometimes there will be two. Even less frequently you might see three entries. I also have decided I am going to rely more on issues rather than personalities. You know already that I detest the moron masquerading as president of the United States. Thus, there is little — if any need — to whip that already bloody carcass. Hell, it’s already been bled dry.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You’re likely to read observations about more local matters. The Texas Legislature is back in special session for the next month. Maybe it will stay on the job longer. I am going to watch our legislators carefully.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I also want to devote more time and attention to what I call “slice of life” matters. Maybe this blog post qualifies as a piece defining a slice of retired life. You know?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I recently posted a blog entry that discussed taking a break from blogging. Some supporters objected and told me they want me to stay in the game. I heard you. I’m not going anywhere.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I just want to tone it down a bit. I want to stay sharp enough to comment when the spirit moves me and when policy decisions demand it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So, there you have it, kids. New rhythm, less pressure, more varied topics.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It’s going to keep me in love with what I do.<\/p>\r\n\n
