Mainly waiting now. What did John Lennon say? “Life is what happens to you when you’re busy making other plans.” And Warren Zevon sang, “Looking for the next best thing/Looking for the next best thing/I appreciate the best/But I’m settling for less/’Cause I’m looking for the next best thing.”

But I’m okay. Someone else said there is a certain solace in fine material things when more cerebral and spiritual things (or personal relations) don’t seem to be enough. When we are thinking maybe too “deeply,” material things like keeping a clean home or owning attractive things don’t seem to matter at all.

Have said this before but am moving house soon. I am looking forward to it. I gave up a certain amount of independence in the past few years and it was damaging. This move will hopefully be part of regaining independence and healthier living.
