Friday started
At the pool with my son’s swimming lesson. The smell of chlorine and the sound of splashing made it easy to focus on something simple for a while.
On Thursday, I went to an improv workshop and talked with a few people. It reminded me how good it feels to be around others who like to create and try new things.
Saturday was family time. I met up with my brother to give him back his Nintendo Switch after he accident lo left it at a hotel on his last, for which I instantly regretted,my son and I had so much fun playing Super Mario bros The upside was that he got motivated to help me clean and declutter. We took a couple of bags out to the dumpster, and it actually felt good to make some space.
I also started driving for Uber again. One of my passengers and I ended up talking about weed. It wasn’t what I expected, but it turned into a thoughtful conversation.
I’ve been reading The Woman in the Library this week. I like that the writer is also a character in her own story, trying to understand things as they happen.
Sometimes changing the routine is what helps me move forward again.
Your posts are usually upbeat so we don’t know about moving forward _again_ as you seem to be moving forward pretty much every Sunday. Whatever it is, I hope all will be resolved!
