It has been a quiet day at home. Don’t think I did much today. A storm is starting to roll in. Hoping we get some rain out it.
I had a long talk with Jason today. He has a major life change happening and needed to vent. I’m grateful I can listen when he needs to do that.
Tagen called this afternoon. He had a situation going on and needed some advice and needed to vent. That seems to be my theme for the day.
I took Sophia for a mile walk this afternoon. Roxy declined my offer to take her. I didn’t go to the gym today so I did a mile walk instead.
Tomorrow I am meeting a friend in Council Grove for lunch. It will be nice to have a deep conversation with a like-minded friend. Thursday I am going to a visitation and Saturday I am going to Council Grove for a political rally.
Feeling a bit disconnected again tonight. My world feels small tonight. It will be good to get out tomorrow and have a long, deep conversation.
I had to take a break from the news today. There are so many distractions going on that it is hard to stay focused on what is important. It was frustrating me so I needed to step away. Right here – right now – all is well as long as I don’t read the news. I think I feel a bit guilty that what is happening hasn’t impacted me directly yet. So many people are hurting from what is happening and many more will hurt in the future. Some nights I can’t go there.
Some days are harder than others. I know love is the answer and that love will win. I need to duck inside and remember that completely.
Grateful for a quiet day at home, grateful for a mile walk today, and grateful I have the privilege to tuck inside when I get overwhelmed with all that is happening.
