Long Day

Today has been a long day. Since it was a day off, I suppose that's a good thing. I seem to be feeling a little melancholy this evening though. I'm not sure why. Usually, I'm more than happy to spend time alone. I relish the idea of whole day spent enjoying the solitude of my own thoughts. For some reason though, this evening I am feeling somewhat lonely. This is an odd experience for me. I sit here and try to figure out why I'm feeling the way I feel and maybe what can be done to fix it. Nothing comes to mind. Thoughts of Timothy are flitting through my mind. I remember good times. This gets me nowhere. I feel better already...LOL.

So how was your day?

I spent mine doing a little here and there of the many things that need to be done, like a child picking at a plate full of unappealing food. Hey, at least I tried it...LOL. I did take the car to the shop to get it checked out and an estimate. $230 to replace a bearing. Sounds a little steep to me, but then I don't know how to change it, do I? I smile and say "Ok. When can you get it done?". I may as well be bending over and spreading my cheeks as I say it.

I do feel good about getting laundry done today. Not that it was some huge monumental task that takes hardwork and perserverance to complete. It was two loads...LOL. Hey, I feel good about getting it done. I did a few dishes as well. Very few...LOL. Ok, so it's not one of my most favorite things. I don't think Julie Andrews sang about it either...did she?

I wish I would have accomplished more today, but then I say that every day. You'd think I'd learn to set my goals a little less lofty, wouldn't you? But then, I'm sure my performance would dimish in relation to that. I paint a very poor picture of myself, don't I? Chalk it up to my melancholy mood.

I started writing about my obsession with Death. I need to look up some statistics though. I would love to include them in my piece. I would like to get a little more information on my chances concerning what sort of death I might experience. I know, sounds morbid, but I find it fascinating. I'm so excited at the prospect of writing about this. I may even submit it for publication in a magazine. Who knows?

I do believe I have written myself out of my melancholy mood. I would like to compliment you on being a very good listener. I feel back to my usual self again.

Who says women are moody?

It's back to work tomorrow. I have a funeral to go to during lunch. Tamara, one of the girls I work with, had a miscarriage. She was 5 months pregnant. They believe she lost the baby due to stress, but that's a whole other story. It's very sad.

The kids come back tomorrow. I just may take them to the lake. Sounds like a good idea right now. We'll see how good it sounds tomorrow. A picnic sounds good as well. With some ice cold soda. I'm not usually a big soda drinker, but I'm thirsty right now and it sounds good. I think I'll go make some tea.

I think your session is over for this evening. I hope you've enjoyed yourself. Please come again. Don't forget to pay on your way out.

Ciao!
