I killed a wasp this evening. I had my glasses
on, instead of my contacts. I can not see well in glasses.
So, I missed him several times and made him mad.
He swooped at me on his way to another window 3 times.
I just finished reading the book Gilead by Marianne Robinson
this morning. I finished it before 5 A.M. I got out of bed early,
and finished it first thing. I wanted to be done. It’s a good story.
People do write beautiful stories. Sometimes, when I am reading a story,
I am tempted to skim, or rush ahead. I have to make a concerted effort
not to do that. Today, when I was playing tennis I was quite sweaty.
I started thinking ahead of what I needed to get done. I had to pull myself
back in the game and finish it. Just like with a book. I have to remind myself
to do one thing at a time. Remember the chaotic mess the two Things made?
One Thing would not have done that…
