The Born Loser

 

Winter has given way to spring, and that means vacation season is almost here.  I have a week off toward the end of April.  No plans.  I'm bad at vacations.

I worry about everything-- the cats, the house, the family. while I'm away.  It's not rational.  Everyone and everything is in great hands.  I just can't enjoy myself.  I'm happier with jaunts around town and some serious napping.

In a lot of ways, I'm just a big ball of anxiety.

Here is a partial list of my worries:

--the banking crisis

--expansion of the war in Ukraine

--China's aggressiveness

--inflation

--the weather

--Covid-19

--violence and crime

--the health of family and friends

--the economy

I could be here for days.

Don't be like me.

Enjoy!  Enjoy!!
