I have a new favorite phrase: "I'm not interested in anything." I hear it time and time again from people I'm canvassing. Sure, I know what they actually mean. But at the same time, maybe they're not interested in anything. My first thought is, "that's sad. Everyone needs a hobby."
But that's not what I came here to talk about.
It's been rainy and gloomy here lately, and it's starting to get to me. I really didn't want to get up today -not like that's a change from any other day these days- and I just feel run down. It takes a lot of energy for me to hold it together and keep going, and days like this, especially several at a stretch, and especially when it's as humid as it's been, I just don't know if I can keep going.
I wonder sometimes if I'm doing this right, but I guess there's no right way. My mom tried to keep me from taking off my wedding ring; she said it was too soon. Maybe she was right. I can't stand to be without it, so I wear it on a chain around my neck. But I digress.
It's supposed to start being nice again Sunday. The temperature will cool down, the humidity will go away, and the sun will return. For now, I have to fight even harder to keep the willpower to keep going. I know I'll be okay, I know I'll make it through, but it's hard to keep going. So today I guess I'll be back out hoofing it in the rain.
But a little rain never hurt no one.
