A transitional time

In recent weeks I have run out of capital for the work on my house. I wlll get more time at home by myself. )

This morning I finally restarted my workouts. From here it is all uphill. )

Work has been busy, I am settling into my part-time on-site office. )

I coped with things reasonably for many months: the lockdown, masking, sanitizing, staying at home, having to spend so very much money on work on the house, though the money had been hard-won and the house issues were of unexpected magnitude. I feel as if I am shifting to a new phase, triggered by running out of money and having to deal with the house as it now is, also the apparent hopelessness of the pandemic: less than half of those in Tennessee are vaccinated and the delta variant is running wild. I had thought that the major house issues would get fixed, the infection rate would drop, etc., but the tunnel just grew longer instead.

I am out of patience. I will remain somewhat prudent but ) the life I have tolerated over recent months is one that it is time to fix a little to include more of what I enjoy. Life may never be what it once was but I am not conceding gracefully.
