ups and downs and stuck in betweens
feeling better but persistent cough is really annoying at night. had two nights of quite good sleep (only one major coughing fit per night) but not so good a night last night. both of us tired and sleepy today (plus i had an early start!)
as for work, i came home after supervision today still feeling a bit worried. finished what i was trying to finish last night and headed out into the garden as it was such a lovely sunny windy day. potted up 12 dwarf bok choi seedlings and one lot of mesclun seedlings. :) happiness!
today it occurred to me i like gardening so much because it's partnering with God in the act of creation. woo.
followed someone's link online to a discussion on some online newspaper about whether one should get the latest i phone or wait for the next one. i actually browsed it a bit with an open mind to see what exactly, if anything, i was missing in my life. after reading couple lines about the astounding new features/improvements, i clicked away, feeling very, very tired. how do people have energy to think so much about such trivial things? should i get this or that phone? who cares? should i get this one or the next one - again, who cares? consuming, consuming, consuming - very tiresome business. i have no patience for tedious repetitive life activities, like eating, moisturising, and definitely buying new "stuff". yawn.
like this banner ad right now on the top of my page. it's some new community about celebrities and gossip. one more time altogether now... WHO CARES?
there are better things to do with my time and energy i think.
