Ben was right, and wrong

Day 42:

On Sunday we went shopping for some shelves for our office, with the intention of putting then up today, Veterans Day - our mid-week day off. But on the way home yesterday I remembered something Ben Franklin said, "Why put off for tomorrow that which could be done today?"

So against my normal preference we came home and hung the shelves.

I was proud of my new attitude towards home improvement efforts, and the wife was pleased with the ahead of schedule accomplishment.

And with one task done, I set out to post the lesson learned from being diligent. That was until the wi-fi in my home decided it no longer wanted to provide the service it was designed to give.

And thus I learned that Ben was, or at least could be, wrong.

And like that, a new lesson was learned.

Today, which really means yesterday, I learned that sometimes there are things beyond our control; which just proves that life is a learning experience...
