I’m Okay… Mostly.
Everything is fine but I don’t feel fine. My head keeps playing all the stupid I’ve been in the last week.
Why am I imperfect? Why do I repeat all the things I’ve done wrong (by my standards and/or someone else’s)?
Really, nothing is that bad. I gave extra credit points. I shouldn’t in college. Okay. Fine. I won’t for quizzes. It was an idea. But now 12 people I don’t know all know I considered it.
We’ll see when it will quit bothering me.
New Authors for me
Saturday or Sunday we went to the library and I checked out 17 books.
Note: if you are a military wife, these are probably not good books to read.
Bring Him Home by Karina Bliss was a beautifully told tale about a woman whose husband was killed as the result of an IED and her husband’s best friend (and her own friend), their grief, and their love. It was a well-told tale and believable.
The Other Soldier by Kathy Altman is also a good story. A friendly-fire incident kills the woman’s husband and the man who deployed the drone goes to see her to try and make amends in some way. She is not happy about that.
Others:
Really enjoyed Cara Colter and Brenda Minton.
