It’s gray and suddenly chilly, which is nothing unusual for the first full week of May here in Chicago. Next week it could be 80.
Next week it could snow.
Stranger things have happened.
Right now I feel like I should be wearing a sign, “Warning: Max Capacity Reached.” I’m burning through my mental resources, and lately they are not feeling abundant.
That happens to all of us, I’m sure. Well, maybe not all of us, there are some super-energetic, super-achievers who generate their own energy the more they use it, human perpetual motion machines.
Kudos.
That sounds more sarcastic than I meant it, I’m sure it’s actually an amazing way to be.
But I am not among their lofty ranks. Life stuff has been very lifey lately.
That also happens to all of us.
I haven’t been around as much as I normally am, and that should be a temporary thing, I hope. When the list gets shorter, the play time gets longer.
Only problem is the list isn’t getting any shorter.
Hold up your end of the bargain, list.
I can’t say I totally miss seeing every horrible thing that’s happening. Even with every third or fifth or tenth horrible thing, it’s plenty.
More than plenty.
Though not knowing, that also can’t be ideal. It’s a tricky balance.
Anyway, all of that is to say I’m still here, I’m still there, it’s only that I have a bunch of other theres to be too.
And with that, I wish you a lovely Thursday.
