Armistice

I haven't posted war updates in a while. This isn't because there haven't been any, but because they've just been a little too complicated to articulate.

Wars have a lot of stages. One of the best is when the parties remember that they have more things in common than different and begin the process of negotiations.

There are things that've happened that led me to believe the universe worked against me. Time may be that I believe that again. Today I'm remembering that I 'm part of the universe, and that I carry a piece of it in me. This doesn't let it off the hook, but perhaps we can work together more on setting things right.

It's snowing a lot. It makes getting out of the house much less of an option. I'm undecided how I feel about that.

I'm back onto my normal work schedule since the fall, which is good. I am NOT back to my previous stamina, which is not good. It means an average day at work exhausts me, and an average week pretty much destroys me. It makes my weekends more focused on basic recovery than anything.

This hurts my creative projects because they're what I do after I've taken care of everything else, and by that time I have pretty much nothing left in the tank. It's been almost two months of this. It's frustrating.
