I seem to recall you having written previously that you have a year to go before you can retire... or some reasonable facsimile there-of? Well... however long you have to keep pressing your nose to the grindstone, I send my best wishes for strength to carry on.

I know something about this. I've been just putting one foot in front of the other for so long I can't recall when it all began. I thought once I wasn't working anymore it would get better. I hasn't really except that at least I don't have to endure work anymore... not that this isn't a blessing... because it is.

Yes... there certainly are many millions of people who have it much worse than we do. But that doesn't make our struggles any less real. At least that's what I keep telling myself. Anyway... hope your day went tolerably well...
