Day 7 - 151 -- Weight of weather, work and the world

It has been a semi-non-productive day. I managed some laundry and changed linens. I worked a bit on the huge puzzle and searched online for a few things needed shortly. Humidity was high again but should leave as the rain arrives this evening.

I tried to watch a few recorded shows, but kept losing focus and flitting around the house to do several small tasks. I feel so much fatigue right now. The weight of weather, work, and the world seem to be at the core of it all. I'm hoping that some down time over the weekend will  help me feel less tired. Negative emotions seem able to walk right in when one is tired. Brief moments of such intense feelings of being alone have arrived recently. It has been 75 days though at times it seems so much longer. A friend back home wrote that she'd had her first brief distanced visit with a real person -- a mutual friend and that they were joined by a third friend of mine. That made me smile to think of them all together having a short chat. It also added to the feelings of something akin to jealousy. The time will come when I can visit with the many friends and family who are geographically distanced at present.

Supporting each other virtually helps so much. Being kind and caring to those we know -- and don't know -- is a key to feeling a part of the solution. A shared laugh always helps, too.  It's all about reciprocity of support. The song chosen for the day deals with being available to help others  -- and likely open for help from others. Stay safe. Enjoy!
