What next

 

Near the Park1-9-26, snow too deep to visit today
     

     Not expecting much today— probably a Costco trip for veggies and beef. Vacuum up the crumbs and sand from past 48 hours.  Read.  Fiddle with devices, like now.  Definitely a dog walk today. RS webinar this evening
   
      I should set a work aim for the day, but that feels hazy.  After all, I read/listened to a couple of Lee's podcasts.  And I’m lumping it vaguely into reading, specifically the German version of BT. Yes, I know how insincere and self justifying that is, going through the motions, not really aims at all…..

    Patties lost the big bowl game, but they weren’t even expected to be in it four months ago, so I’m OK with it.  Interesting postgame emo temp:  I can imagine a tingle of elation for today if they had won, and somehow I feel its lack. Yet how can I miss something I didn’t have?  But it’s not disappointment or an opp to play the blame game, all too common among media commentators.  

     C returned yesterday from MA, so we visited with her and Nola toward the end of the game.  Her daughter’s vball traveling team won all 12 of their games, and she suffered a bloody nose blow but no concussion, so stayed in the game.  Next weekend is their big TN trip. She reports that this activity is fun but more exhausting and expensive than expected. Plus she misses her other daughter and. little Nola. Both doggies have manifested some mild anxiety for their changes in habits, including their nightly visits. Like humans:  automatons.

      Alright, alright already! Stop nagging myself!  Work aim du jour:  before dinner, a serious sensing meditation. Got all those other things to do now.
