Hazy, Crazy Days
Sunday, August 1, 2010
Sundays are quiet here. Tractors are quiet; traffic is coming from church; grandchildren visit across the road. I was the only one out doing yard work. It’s a day of rest for most. Besides, the thermometer read near 90 degrees today, but it wasn’t as humid. We still haven’t had rain, which is bad.
This was not a good day. My father was in a foul mood, dissatisfied with everything and being contrary. I know he’s frustrated by his situation and has never been overly patient. All I can do is step back or tread carefully when I feel a clash coming on. Déjà vu.
(sigh) Patience, patience, patience, count to 10. There’s a lot going on. I’m here to help. More appointments this week.
And now it’s August.
