Today ...

A place to relate, share, care for, and support one another. A place to share about our daily activities and events around the home.

Today .. i’m a nervous wreck, bordering on an anxiety attack, probably. :-|
Over nothing. Nothing bad. i’ve been struggling since Saturday.
Useless anxiety. Nervous.

Very likely, within an hour, maybe 2, i’ll be fine. and happy. no reason not to be happy.

i have things to do. i’m afraid of forgetting something important in the process. i usually do ok. (occasional errors.)

There is no good reason for this. But there it is.

It’s the kind of anxiousness that comes before having a final exam, or expecting 30 people for Thanksgiving dinner.
No matter how prepared, nervousness.

This is another day the Lord hath made. :wave:

This was actually on Sunday. After the sermon, a man got up and asked the congregation to pray for his son--he had just lost a close friend in a traffic accident. She was Face Timing when she crashed. The father asked his son how he knew what she was doing, and it was because he was the one Face Timing with her. I pray that this will get the young man serious about his eternity.

Wow. I’m looking at the time you posted this. Exactly one hour before you posted this, I heard squealing tires and saw dust, and a loud crash. I rushed over and found a pickup had come down the hill, run a stop sign, and crashed off the road and into a tree.
A young girl was in it, seemed okay, looked about 16 years old. She said she had been holding her phone on loud speaker, talking. Didn’t keep her eyes on the road. Seemed okay, pickup was totaled.

These cases used to make big headlines.
Now, we may guess they’re happening “everywhere,” mostly ignored.

How i wish .. cellphones would again be separated from computers+cameras. So many deaths have resulted.

I have to use progressive lens. Yes, this means I am evil, well my eyesight is evil.

Or maybe your eyesight sees what’s ahead of you and is waiting for the rest of your body to catch up.
