. . . is sort of what I do, and it's a habit. (Sorry, Rosa!) And I wrote the last post in great haste owing to urgent need to tend to things. (Rather like multi-tasking several lines of chaos. No, Chaos. It deserves the cosmological designation.) The circumstances to which I refer are a very serious ongoing confrontation (I may have mixed tenses there) (ooh, I made an unintended funny!) with a (genetic) brother that's (bothering the hell out of me? heck, I don't know how to describe the level of either cause or effect), am stuck by my own nature to the high road, and I'm having to keep an energetic "game face" on so that our mother doesn't twig to the existence of (or viciousness of) the discord, because that would upset her tremendously.
I should have specified that my health is great (down 140), that of my family ditto, and it's sunny in my mountains, and I'm hiding in my room at No. 3 today because the County Historical Society is conducting all day tours of historic houses, and apparently this is one of them. The place is spotless and totally neat, with the exception of my room which is closed and in which, like on the deck of a laboring boat, one finds the line, hooks, winches and other implements I use.
Today is the first day in several that I'm thinking clearly and looking for the learning that this situation has to present. Haven't found it yet, but it's there.
Endeavoring to persevere (I love that phrase, comes from Outlaw Josey Wales with Clint Eastwood),

Roger, glad they weren't physical problems! I'm sorry though that it is family troubles. Those problems are especially thorny ones.
Have fun with the tour :-) Pop out and scare people
so glad you're okay, despite Chaos and brother Bothers

The trouble with trouble, is that if it is still left simmering...then it is always with you. You can't forget about it.
I know what I mean, but however I try and write that it doesn't seem to make any sense.
That made lots of sense to me, Clanky.
Darling Roger, You are losing your physical boundaries quickly ... and must work hard on erecting the internal ones yes? This is something I'm currently working on (my physical boundary being my house). Welcome home sweetcakes. Sarai
Bro Roger,
I am glad you are back
