11-42 (11/2/24) -- Mounting Stresses

Bright sunshine shone through the  windows this morning. Clouds returned by early afternoon again. I cleared a shovel width path off the patio. The snow is heavy and wet, so that 10 foot path was all I chose to do today. Laundry was also on the list. Living the dream <grin>. 

I've been very tired again lately. Stress and extra physical activity with shoveling and such likely have a great deal to do with this. My overnight sleep seems disrupted by external sounds. Even early morning this week brings the sound of hammers as the next floor of the apartment building is being framed. Now the forecast includes winter storm watch with likelihood of 20-30 cm snow -- on top of the house sized piles we have around the neighbourhood. There is also a strong chance that flurries and sea effect snow squalls will bring further snow once the nor'easter has moved past. This news brings stress again and will require more moving snow from point A to point B. So, no rest in store it seems. 

A dear friend reminded me of this song a while back. It brings some calm and helps me breathe. Hope it can do the same for you. Keep safe. Enjoy! 

Hold On -- John Lennon
