and then there was one
The theme lately has been organize, organize, organize. Organize at work. Organize at home. Organize the finances. Organize the daily minutia. And organize the future for myself and my children. What do I do? I organize the toiletries and call it a day.
To be fair, the toiletries needed it. I’m feeling a bit, sometimes a lot overwhelmed. Sometimes I’m scared. Sometimes I feel inadequate. I should do yoga or meditate. Definitely clean my room. But the list of should do's seems endless. And my attention span isn’t. Shiny things…
Next year, will I look back on this year and feel the way I do about last year?
I smile to myself and wonder how cold it is out here on the patio. I can tell the difference between 99 and 100 degrees but under 70 confuses me. I can see my breath and I can’t feel my toes. It’s just cold.
I have a small idea or two. I’m excited, a little. I think I’ll read a bit of the slow book while I finish the last half of today’s last cigarette. I’ll snuggle up under my quilt and end another of my finite days on earth.
Who said, “If I wanted to read a good book I’d write one”?
