Confusion

theguardian.com – signspotting.com

It seems to me that our world is a mass of mixed signals and confusion. It’s hard to know what to think, what to feel, which way to jump.

I’m kind of like a deer frozen in the headlights, concentrating on one day at a time, trying to do what I can, when I can, one careful step at a time, with a lot of trying to escape thrown in, too, since there is so much happening that I can’t do anything about.

The only thing I can come up with is to try to personally stay as strong as I can, continuing to look for any ways to try to make things better wherever I can find.

I wish I were a fairy godmother, able to wave my wand, think good thoughts, and save the world.

My husband and I have been reworking our genealogy records. We have found some areas that we either left out, or messed up, so we are going through things very carefully again, trying to verify things, match up images, etc.

After you work on it awhile, using different kinds of records, your brain turns to mush and your eyes glaze. That’s the state we’re in now.

I just went out and gathered some tomatoes – taking our dog Molly for a walk – before it starts to storm again. We will soon have a snack from our South Beach Diet box and then do some relaxing before the afternoon is gone.
