disillusionment

I've been thinking about my priorities as of late.

I've also realized that depending on other people is an exercise in futility. That's not news for a lot of people, but it's something I am experiencing at the moment. I am stupid for letting people disappoint me so much.

Every time the temperature goes above 5 degrees, the huge block of ice on the roof starts melting and our ceilings begin to leak dirty brown rainwater everywhere. So while everyone is happily enjoying the beautiful balmy spring weather I am listening to the miserable dripping of my ceilings. One of the leaks is right above my mattress.

I'm old enough to know that time doesn't slow down, even if you've ground to a halt.

I hope things are better next week.
