Mid August
What a blur.
Just, finally, got the imp back on educational and personal track, had a difficult time enduring the environment here (preventable problems again, this time the refrigerator on top of the usual), but made progress on my research and alterations to the clothes recently purchased, repair to old favorites. Altogether too much time, perhaps, spent in near focus!
And quality time for the first time this summer with more friends.
Satisfactorilarily closed the most urgent of the Florida invitations to share a home and made definite arrangements for the one in Colorado. Not my favorite climate, and so hate the long trip heavily laden (this time taking only a carful of stuff to live with, packing today), but the people and unique opportunities will compensate for the long road...
And the spouse and I are still on good terms- not much has changed; we seem to be very rare in remaining civil. By now it likely never will devolve into the incivility one usually sees; our accountant even is surprised to feel, as we are willing to cooperate, he can work with both of us for this year, apparently very rare-
But then, when one lives in harmony with others it is possible to respectfully disagree, to remain friends, to cooperate yet live apart, to let each other live life, independently and freely without unnecessary pain and rancor.
