My daughter is in 11th grade so the college considerations are on and standardized testing has begun, and all that.
I think that’s the main “background” stress right now.
I need to oil the deck and finding a dry day when I’m not busy has become the priority of the next few days. Right now the deck is drying out from the storm we had yesterday but I don’t know if it will be dry enough by the end of the day for me to get this done today.
The war in the ME and the US Presidential election are concerns but I wouldn’t say they’re stressors, for me. Honestly, I’m not thrilled with Biden and I’m definitely not voting for Trump, so it’s more of an annoyance than anything. Annoyance that those are my two choices and neither makes me happy.
I’m feeling bad for the college kids that won’t get their graduation, because of the protests, being that these kids didn’t have much of a traditional graduation from HS during 2020 Covid. That’s not a stress, just something I feel bad about.
