There’s not a lot to write about today. I didn’t really… do much.
In the process of waking up my normal gazillion times, I decided to try and sleep a bit longer, and I ended up sleeping until a few minutes too late to see Heather off to work. 😕
I wandered down to the South end of the horse area to give the horses the customary morning treat that I give them (either apple core(s) or orange peel(s) (or both). Fiona and River were both lying down, which is a first in my limited experience. Fiona stayed lying down for her treat, but River stood up.
Anyway, threw some plain mini wheats in the bowl and dumped some frozen mango chunks and soy milk on them for breakfast.
Didn’t eat it all.
I keep not eating my mini wheats. I barely ate half of them, and I didn’t even have a very full bowl.
Not sure what my deal is. 🤷
I tried to work a little bit while I sorted files in an effort to complete my Great File-Sorting Project. As per usual, there was almost nothing of value to try and answer. Just two questions today with hours of waiting.
Fortunately, it’s not wasted time because I was making progress in my file sorting.
As I sorted files, I came across more old conversations, though today’s weren’t phone conversations. They were Facebook conversations way back at the beginning of July of 2020.
Reading through, it almost feels like yesterday.
The things talked about… It’s almost like nothing at all has changed for me in almost six years. There were lots of questions and there was a lot of confusion I was working through, and I still have it all.
I would have thought I would have made at least some progress. 😅
Lots of thoughts…
Tomorrow is Temple day, so today is Temple Drive day, and I wanted to get on the road early in the hopes of maybe avoiding the Sun. It was cloudy, but looking off to the West, it looked like it was clearing up, and it can be cloudy and cool over here and hot and sunny over there in Wyoming.
I mucked out the barn and dragged the horse apples before heading out and then downloaded a gazillion gospel talks as I drove, listening to all of them and chatting a good bit with the Big Guy on my four-plus hour drive to my camping spot.
All the focusing on those old conversations has left me a little melancholic and has brought on lots and lots of thoughts… and the one person I want to talk to about it all isn’t available.
I can feel my perspective better now than it has been, though. That’s progress I’m grateful for. 🙏
I let myself vege a little, and now I’m gonna crash for the night. It’s 10:43.
G’night, y’all. 🤍
Lift the world.
Bring it on.
