Uncertainty

I have been going to the same coffee shop for about 12 years.  As a result, I have a lot of friends there so it can sometimes be difficult to work on pics or write anything.  Recently I have been spending some time at a different coffee shop that has beautiful views of the river, great coffee and an attractive owner.  Today's view includes a spectacular sunrise.

I've not written about D's health issues, but she has a serious condition that is causing her a tremendous amount of pain and difficulty.  The prognosis is unclear but most don't survive this particular affliction.  However, there is this possibility that she could get better, stabilize, and live a long life.  This means I am dealing with a massive amount of uncertainty.  However, today I decided, that if I should end up alone, I will buy a nice sailboat and travel the world.  I have slightly less uncertainty in my life now.

Priorities

I suspect today will be one of the last days I'll be able to sit outside and drink my coffee in the morning.  It's unusually warm and I understand there is a colder weather pattern en route.

I feel complacent this morning.  I have little energy and I'm feeling very anxious about finances as usual.  D has not worked since Jan and we have not made our payments to the IRS since then.  It's just a matter of time before they knock on my door.  What I should be doing is filling out the damn 433 form and negotiating a settlement with them.  I need to make this a priority.
