It's been impossible to write a post before this time, but don't ask me what I have been doing instead because I won't be able to answer you. I don't have much to show for my time, except that I can say that I have not wasted it and have been keeping myself occupied. I have been steadily working on my list of things to do and I've had appointments each day lately so I managed to stay out of trouble for he most part.
The list of things to do is turning out to be a little tougher than I thought it was going to be. The items on there are not checked off that quickly because each time I'm running into a complication so things take twice as long. It's teaching me to be patient and take a long term view, but I think I already knew how to do that and really didn't need the lesson.
Having learned relaxation exercises does help me cut down on any stress I might feel because of this, so I'm not too aggrevated and manage to keep my head cool. I know everything will be resolved in the end. The end will just come a little later. I don't wish to feel stressed all day long and do take times out. There's a time to care and a time to relax. You can't have your bow pulled tight all the time, but I think that's a Dutch saying.
I'm sitting here now with my second cup of coffee instead of taking a nap. I thought it might be a good idea to have the caffeine and to last until tonight until I go to sleep. I'm thinking about stopping the sleeping pill. I've only got one left and it is of a very low dose. I will not get more and try to do without as of tomorrow. That does mean that I have to start doing without my afternoon nap. I've got to get off the sleeping pills sooner or later.
It's been raining on and off since Sunday. Sometimes huge showers let enormous amounts of rain fall from the sky. Luckily, I haven't been caught in one of these yet. The dog and I have only gotten a little wet during our walks. It was impossible to see Venus transit in front of the sun. There were too many clouds.
I hope you are all having a good day.
Ciao,
Irene

Time just seems to shoot by. We have had intervals of watery sunshine today but mostly rain & cold over the last few days. Not at all what you'd expect for June.
Love the photo you used.

Nuts in May
We had such wonderful weather for viewing the Transit of Venus that there hours long line up to get to the telescopes set up by the U of T.
Actually, I just stayed home and watch its slow progress from various websites around the world. It was neat to see the different location of Venus in Norway and Australia (it really is an upside down world!)
I like that saying about not having your bow pulled to tight.
Me too Irene, I feel really really stressed and overworked and downright cranky. I don't do that well.
Glad to see your ToDos are beating my ToDos.
