I'm back

I didn't journal yesterday. I started to write 3x's and wasn't happy about it, so I deleted them.

I feel alright. Voices are talking low. That's good, I can't hear em. Not that I listen anyway.

I have issues like anyone. I get in moods, up, down whatever. Try as I might, with all my might, to stay positive. I do have my moments.

I go today to see my granddaughter. It's been awhile since I've seen her. They live in the country. It's a 45 minute ride.

I finished the bench..WOOHOO!! I am happy. Margaret is happy about it too. We bought an 8' bridge at the discount store. I have to put it together in the garage. The dogs won't like that, especially Frappe. He doesn't like it when I go in the garage.

I made oatmeal cookies with a vanilla frosting. They turned out okay. It was fun to make em.

I am an overdoer. When I start to do something I will finish it, even when my body hurts. My backs been hurting for two months. The chiropractor helps. Now I have an 8' bridge to assemble.

These Suduko puzzles are challenging my mind. It's funny, what I learn from them. If it gets too difficult and my vision is clouded, I will set it aside and come back to it with a clearer mind. It has taught me patience. Sometimes I have to look at the whole puzzle. If I channel my attention to one part, and not the whole puzzle I may not see where the pieces go. It has taught me that I can solve the puzzle even if it takes days. There was one time I worked a puzzle for a week before solving it. It's a great feeling, knowing that with patience and perservance, I can solve most of my problems. And the distraction helps keep my mind off of things. It improves my concentration.


I'm just babbling now. I wanted to write something, anything. It is good therapy for me.

I never know how to end my posts. I always feel like I left it in midstream. I will leave it until next time.

Live, love, laugh, learn, listen,

David
