Tiredness and Moments, Post #36

I am so tired.

This summer has been one where I've constantly been moving ahead of the Bad Stuff all around, the waves of Bad Stuff following me. This week I had a day where I stopped and breathed, at which point the wave crashed over me and I was inundated with all of the summer's grief and stress.

I do not recommend.

But even so, there have been some nice moments:

*a work event where I could catch up with an acquaintance from another department
*a lunch with a new colleague
*dropping off old shoes for new soles
*paying off a loan or two
*thinking about workouts and asking my trainer-friend to come up with a home program for me
*reading Jessica Mitford's Hons and Rebels, which presented Mitford history familiar to me in a very different way
*listening to Lorde's latest album

It's raining today, and I think I'll put on the album and dance a bit, to push that wave of Bad Stuff back. Or I could nap. Either would work.

May you be dancing in good moments too this weekend.
