Tempus Fugit

Wow!  It's been almost five years since I published anything here.  I'm so glad I don't make my living off of this.  So many changes, some good and some bad.  The Average Bear is no longer around, which feels strange after 38 years of marriage, and four years dating before that.  I thought of him today as I was putting some books back on the shelves after a remodeling project.  They were mainly textbooks we used when we were young and in college.  Even to the end, he did not take any responsibility for the poor health choices he made.  It reminds me of Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" -  We could have had it all.

Even though five years have passed, I am still fighting battles.  It has taken almost 5 years to settle the estate, but I think I've gotten all forms filled out, and my name changed on most of the mail and other business.  I'm still getting offers to buy the house.  No, I'm trying to get it updated and repaired, which has been a battle in and of itself.

So, I'm still here (sort of), and still fighting battles I should not have to fight.  But that's the current state, and I'll just keep putting one foot in front of the other.  Thanks for listening.  I hope your life path is a little smoother.

Never Again

It has not been a great year.  I applied for several jobs, but didn't even reach the interview stage.  The AC went out last night.  My sister is going through a rough time.  I'm ready for life to take a different turn for the better.  It is tiring having to fight several battles day after day.

Patience

I will have patience.
I will have patience.
I will have patience.
I will have patience...

Working, working, working...

I'm working hard to change the unpleasant things in my life, but it's easy to get discouraged.  No full-time jobs available that I have found, no long-lost wealthy relatives, and I haven't bought a lottery ticket this week.  "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..."

Sigh

Not the best day, but others have it much rougher.  Just wish I could have some smooth sailing for a while.
Heavy sigh.

The Average Bear Update

The Average Bear is not very smart.  But then again, we already knew that, didn't we?

Sorry, not sorry.

The Average Bear

The Average Bear make me laugh today by being so out of touch with reality. Usually, he makes me want to pull my hair out, but today I got a good chuckle.
