How is Everyone Here Coping? I'm find it very hard these days..

[get the red out]

63. Paying attention to life

Or at least the fun things in it. Doing stuff with my dog, we do agility (poorly, LOL), and we go to obedience classes, and I take her to run and run in green fields at the edge of the city with my friend's dogs. My husband and I watch Science Fiction (Dr. Who is BACK) and cuddle with our dog on the couch. I've been increasing my daily walk while reducing the time I spend doing it, the exercise endorphins help a lot.

I am at a loss for what to do about this damned world and the splintering of our government and our country. I can't do anything and I don't see anything changing, that's how I have felt this week. I've just about given up on thinking about all those big things out there, as much as I can, and I'm focusing on life right now. This is really all any of us have, now. Might as well make the most of it, be the best person I can be in it, and try to enjoy it.

I also buy a couple of lottery tickets every week, if I win we're getting a really nice house (and another dog, but hubby doesn't know that part yet, I'll tell him that after we get a few million, LOL).

Knitting? LOL, I've got new yarn on the way, it was 40% off.

If the powers that be let me keep my dog, my husband, agility trials, and my knitting; maybe that is enough. I know I'm grateful for it. I'm grateful for my little life.
