patching leaks

“In a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.” -Warren Buffett

since moving home i've accumulated experiences without accountability.  for the past month i've been transitioning out of hospital clinic, massage clinic downtown and filling storage and garage with tons of books and equipment.  i've kept busy with spinning, swimming and paddling but lack motivation to move ahead quickly with return to work.  the new clinic awaits a lease signing and progress to construction, but is taking shape.  for now the days are filled with organization, CSI, NCIS, and the Walking Dead...  i feel a bit of a zombie now myself..
