Just Pick Up and Go On

Take the Next Step

I don’t know how anybody else is feeling, but I am exhausted. I am sick. I am weary. I got no mojo.

Just saying. So, with that, I will turn my face to happier thoughts. I’ve got a massive deadline today. It’s Thursday for me which means I need to post my kid’s video this afternoon. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. It’s practically the only deadline I have these days.

Other people go to work. I am retired, and all I have to do is to wake up. I couldn’t live like that, though that’s sort of what happened over the course of this week.

Maybe I need a few more deadlines.

I have to say I’ve gotten some quality tube time in.

Yes, I’ve done a little reading, but not much. I seem to read the same pages over and over again. I can’t seem to concentrate on anything other than my tube time. You know, my great-grandmother Neddie used to watch her soaps every day. She’d sit there and talk to the actors on the television. I wonder if they ever knew how happy they made an old woman.

There were problems, though, when she would come to visit. We lived in a different time zone and her shows came on at different times. So, she’s sitting there watching what she thought was “As the World Turns,” and it was instead “Days of Our Lives”…
