Yes dabbledabbledabble, learn all the crafts, beginner jack of a moderate number of trades, much having fun much delight etc etc. Very pro that. But also:

I am going to learn weaving (substitute $skill here) and it is going to take my whole entire life. Every year I will see how far I have come and all the years ahead to go, until the years ahead are fewer than those behind, until they cease entirely. I don't need to rush because there is a lifetime of work to be done and still I will never know it all. Even the most mundane project builds the knowledge base that I may draw from in decades to come. Every project has something new. Improvement is inevitable if I put in the study and the practice, practice, practice. There are no shortcuts but I can rest when I need to. Somewhere far down the road is mastery.

The IRS is thinking about eliminating its free tax filing services in order to funnel money to commercial tax filing services save tax payers lots of money! But they are being required by Congress to see how Americans feel about that idea, so they have an anonymous survey up. So let them know what you think (and maybe call your senator and representatives too!)

fun thing about herding and/or generally neurotic breeds: they are really good at following rules you have instituted, but they will also make their own Dog Rules they will follow stringently whether or not you like it
