A Sliding
Scale
Sunday
Of Sorts
Many of us who visit ActiveRain look forward to the appearance of Carol Williams on Saturdays. Each week she curates posts suggested as praiseworthy by members along with some of her own hand-picked gems. There can be a lot we can miss while traveling through the AR blog roll. Second Chance Saturday now reflects more than 200 weekly entries which seems like a lot of second chances if you ask me. But this post is not solely about second chances or even scales but those two things do come to mind so here is a post which combines the two. Well, sorta.
I can’t imagine compiling this information on a regular basis as Carol does or as some other rainers such as Liz and Bill Spear do with their Tuesday Ask The Ambassador series plus the light bulb moments captured by Kathy Streib.
On this weekend after gathering and gobbling have occurred, my mind goes in the direction of the scale. Not that I'm looking for a second chance with that device mind you but I am also not jumping on it. However, I do wonder if there could be a sliding aspect added to that scale like a start with a minus five or ten pounds. Maybe for just a second.
Variations tied to scales are but one direction we can take. Valuation can certainly enter the discussion. Perhaps volatility plus volume adds to the bigger picture. I quickly realize this may be going on a path I am not prepared to take. Sometimes victory comes when cutting it short or simply by removing the scale. Out of sight and out of mind. Something like that.
Yes, I wonder. Hmm, did someone mention pie??? And did somebody say something about seconds??? I digress. . . And it seems that "I digest" may be on the table too.
