Navigating

That’s where I have been lately. Pushing off the depression and anxiety which tends to loom. Crazy, huh? That’s what I think, too. I am blessed beyond question. My Facebook page is full of vacation and grandkids. My super-supportive Hubby wants to move forward in so many ways, and I feel like the dissenter so much of the time.  I feel proud of the work I am doing in my job to highlight the construction industry through my personal interviews and writing. I get so much gratification from my relationship with my 3 grandkids as the “away” Gra’ma (aka the “fun” one). I am relieved and proud that all 3 of our adult children are now fully self-supportive. 

So what am I looking for? 

I have appointments at the gym with trainers, but I am being lazy in telling them what I want, so no. Hubby and I have purchased and are in the process of developing a raw property which I love in Texas between Kerrville and Junction. I have done all of the permits and research with contractors on this on my own – not always to great success. Hubby is the dreamer, but I am the detailer.  

However, I feel such a heavy weight of sadness lately. Politics, terrorism, hurricanes, fires, many deaths of personal friends lately (I play bridge with the retirement crowd on a regular basis). Since I last updated on OD, I had to take the lead over my foot-dragging sister to move our dementia-hoarding mom out of the house we grew up in into a safe place for her to live where Mom still believes she is “in charge.”

OK, Life is not all terrible, so I will find a lovely pic to post with this entry. -I just found it. Story about it to follow! (Did I mention that Hubby and I learned to sail?) Thank you DM for bringing OD back!!!!!
