What, tired of being angery? yeah, but it's also the blanket to my Linus. Tired of the almost endless stream of people being pissed off, let down and fed up? Also Yes. But I'm also more concerned with my own well being then theirs. Maybe thats it, or not. But I do know that yes I am tired
Not just being angry, but the...atmosphere of anger. Nobody's had a good winter, and spring doesn't seem to be shaping up to be much better. It's draining. Even my pacifist friend got into an argument yesterday. I'm not kidding. Being around all this anger and stress is like someone grabbing hold of my guts and twisting.
I just spent about an hour working in the front garden. The new rose is blooming enthusiastically, and it's not long before the lilac and allium bulgarica put on their show, too. The cranesbills and pincushion-flowers are also on the verge of some real gorgeousness, and it looks like it will be a fine year for the irises. A dove was cooing at me from a hiding-place somewhere in the euonymus.
Tired? Yeah, I guess so. I had to pull back a lot of Virginia creeper, but I think I'm going to leave the rest of the weeding for another evening; weeding is my anti-angst. :)
Tired enough to get bouncy and cheerful, and work on lifting flagging morale, my own and everyone else's. I don't know about you, but I've always been one of those people who's best in adversity. If only my life were a continual crisis, I'd be oddly fine, because I'd have to be constantly operating in 'best' mode.
I hope to hell you guys didn't have to stay too late last night. I hope you slept. Here's wishing you good things, and thank you for all you do.
It's probably partly a sampling problem. People don't pipe up unless something's going wrong.
Me, I've been having a fairly good last few weeks. Exhausting, but in that good way where you feel it's because stuff is getting done. Hence, my hardly saying anything.
I wish I could fix it by simply saying more when things are going well, but that's a tough energy state for me to stay in.
