Doldrums .

Well, I had a sip last night. Actually, I was full into my cup. I suppose, and no fouls were performed, except against my brain cells. Life has been so slow lately, that at least it was something. No, slow life is not an ‘excuse’ nor a reason, it just happens to coincide with the incident. I do not even have a headache this morning.

I have not, been doing much lately. The neighbors seem to be moved in and settled. They are younger, but that should be fine. I started the lawn yesterday, and did it the way I had been thinking. I cut half of it, at an angle. Monday or Tuesday I will cut across that, then I will begin taking turns mowing the lawn with my neighbor. I see with bumps caused by this and that, the slight hills and valleys on the lawn, my angles are not great. There are some rows, too, which are wider and some that are narrower. I am hoping that over time, this will even out, both as the rest of the lawn eventually gets mowed and as I get better at doing this.

My Mom says she will be coming up in August. I will be glad to see her. I will not be able to go all out for her, yet she will not go away hungry, or have any unmet need. Food, too, should be good. Beyond that, not much is happening or going to happen in the near future. Summers seem just as bad as winters, no one wants to do a thing.
