The holidays are over, the tree has been discarded, the tourists have departed the area and Somewheresville has settled into the mellow calm of January. If only I could do the same.
I am still behind in last semester’s work, with three papers to write before the middle of the month. I can do it! Yes I can! I feel like Bob the Builder…
I begin the next semester right on the heels of the departing one, so I will be happy when I can begin something anew, with a fresh outlook and be through with the leftovers.
Mom is doing well; safe, happy, warm, loved, and cared for.
I am now in my 7th year of sobriety, having celebrated my 6th last week. Life goes on, thank the Big Wheel that spins in the Cosmos.

Congratulations on your anniversary! And also on having a mother who is doing well, and for having the tourists return from whence they came. *G*
I have 2 essays and a mini-autobiography to write in the next 11 days and, while the essay topics are interesting enough, I just don’t feel like doing them. And I don’t relish the autobiography at all. So much to excuse, so much to leave out, so much to handle diplomatically. It’s a necessity, but not a pleasant one.
Good luck with your papers. You’re right: you can do it.
