What Are You Thinking? Continued 2

The downside of my sentimentality is that I can be a little too sensitive about certain things.
 
:rose:

I suppose it’s better than the alternative. And these days I think it through before reacting. Usually reason prevails. Usually.

Progress. :)

If "pro" means for, and "con" means against... then the opposite of "progress" is "congress" :D
 
Thinking about my plans for packing. I need to decide what can be stored outdoors, and what needs to stay indoors. Think I’ve got an idea! Optimum efficiency 😂
 
I spend so much time waiting for things, and when its "here", I'm not that interested. In this situation, I was thinking about the NBA Playoffs, but if I do watch, its no more than 5 minutes (usually the first and last couple). I can say this about many things, but its not like I'm one of those people who have no time. I do, but I'm constantly saving time by doing a few things at once, scheduling, routines, and I ask myself, "Saving my time for what? I eliminate one quickly to get to a new task that I can't wait to end".

I live on a road where EVERYONE has at least one dog, and now I can't stand pets in general. All they do is bark - morning, afternoon, night. Many feral cats, but at least they don't make loud noises. And of course where I am in the USA, the police only come after bullshit, as opposed to criminals.
 
Family is supposed to stick together. But what if when everything is said and done, there is nothing recognizable left? What do we do then? It’s make or break time, and it feels like we are breaking.

It's not blood that makes family. It's love. Hold onto that and best of luck.

I agree. My blood family I just call ‘relatives’. They don’t get the title of family! They have never been there for me, sometimes family just doesn’t work. It’s very sad, as I’ve indicated, I’ve been there. The only person I’ve ever called family was/is my best friend. I believe true family are the ones we make ourselves!

Just like the saying “anyone can father a child, but it takes a real man to be a dad” - I won’t dissect that, but in black and white terms, a family is so much more than blood.

I agree with you about it not always being about blood. But when you have a close knit family like I do, it’s hard to accept it when that starts to change.

Some of the people I am closest to don’t share a single drop of blood. But my relatives have always been so involved with each other, and for the most part are a very loving group. That’s why it’s so hard to see circumstances starting to affect that.

Thank you both for the sentiments :rose: :rose:
 
Nine hours in, and we're at about 2 hours worth of business. We shouldn't be here.
 
Time has got away from me! I’m sure it was just after midnight just a moment ago, now it’s almost 1:30! :eek:
