Life as we know it...

Life as we know it... actually Life as it is... a stressful series of trials and tribulations.

The past few months have been ... let's just say unpleasent. No focus, no direction just languishing in the muddied waters of indecision. I need to set some goals, I NEED to focus on myself and rather than others. Priorities need to be determined, plans made and action taken...or I can just continue to languish in an abyss of mediocrity or maybe depression.

In short I need to do something. Make a list (I've many of those laying around) and then check the tasks off as they are accomplished, but there are other things I also need to do aside from just tasks, I need to exercise my thoughts, read a book vs. watch the boob tube or sit in front of a computer screen all day.

Boy how I wish the weather would warm and spring would get here for good...the gardens need work, the yard...at least it would be something physical and something for me. Not that I couldn't go to the parents house and do an ENORMOUS amount of cleaning and tossing there, then there's Thelma's racks and racks of papers to organize....tasks that hang heavy over my head.

Plus they will be coming back from Texas and after this last episode...I dread the phone call that will ask me to fly down and drive them back as they are just not able to do it...then turning the water and heat back on with all the myriad pipes to resecure, valves to shut and so forth and the inevitable leaks that occur afterwards.

Life...a series of trials and tribulations.
