Maybe this world is
another planet's hell.

Wouldn't it be interesting if Trump supporters turn out to be the same folks who accused Obama of "dividing people"?

I need to get organized. I think I have a bad case of internet addiction. It's not unusual for me to spend the entire day online, reading articles, following links, looking stuff up, watching videos. I get nothing else done.
There are two classes of things I'm not getting done:
A.) Everyday household stuff like washing dishes, laundry, paying bills, vacuuming, sorting, filing, whatever, and
B.) Things in furtherance of long-term goals, like getting out of the country house, rearranging things here so I can move furniture down, refiguring the budget so I don't need to depend on withdrawing principal now that I can (am forced to) use the IRAs, and so on.
I think the way to get moving is to commit to two from column A every day, and one or two (depending on complexity) from column B every week.
We'll see how long I can do that. Having made the resolution on the drive home Thursday, I already failed yesterday.
Sigh.

Gary is spending all day on the net too. Just in the last two days he's started doing usefulness things. Perhaps it's spring.
I have been in that place and I have tried exactly that method of moving forward. It worked...for awhile, anyway. Good luck!
Queen - you may be right about spring. I seem to have more energy.
Lisa - My main problem is that I get overwhelmed. I look around and don't know where to start, so I don't start. I need to remember that one step forward is one step forward.
