Last week felt interminable (perhaps it was the heat), close friends are having a hard time, and I haven’t slept well in two days. It requires precious energy to keep my thoughts and feelings compartmentalized, so they do not take me over, entirely. This sometimes happens when I don’t slip the proper filter in place to handle the problems that occur in the lives of those close to me.

Today, I plan to lay low and handle only what I must, to remind myself that I’m fine, and that this too shall pass. Tomorrow is another day, and likely a better one (especially if I sleep well tonight). In my present state of mind I also plan on making NO important decisions.

I’m feeling better already! Perhaps I can salvage what is left of the day. Thank you for listening.
