Monday Musings: Some Days Are Just "Like That!"

So, no "Morning Thoughts" today because... well, it's 11:30pm and this is pretty much my first chance to sit down and do something other than put out fires in my immediate surroundings.

To be honest, I have pretty much "had it" with this day... and this weekend. Sometimes I have a lingering feeling of having "had it" with this whole thing called life because it feels like running a perpetual marathon race, on a course that's entirely uphill.

After a while you just get plain 'ole tired!

Yesterday, my Facebook account was hacked... and I managed to "recover" it after about a half hour of finagling.

Silly me thought that was the end of that, but evidently the hacker had some way to steal it back using his/her phone number, so this time I went through a *far more laborious and frustrating process to get my account back.

That was three hours of my life I'll never get back.

Short version: This is how I end up just feeling sick and tired of the whole cheat, steal, hack, defraud mindset that seems so commonplace in our world. It's just such a waste of time and resources... and I hate it. Yes, "hate" is a very strong word, but it applies here.

I was planning to get a lot of work done today, but that pretty much all flew out the window.

You know that feeling of working on some lengthy written document or project... and then your computer blue-screens just before you save your work? Feels a bit like that.

I've always been pretty good at "resigning myself" to doing whatever it was I needed done tomorrow, but sometimes we just don't have enough tomorrows to catch up.

Meanwhile, I'm feeling a bit sad about seeing our Hive token dip back below 40 cents.. after everything started to look a bit promising again.

I'm trying to persuade myself that it's not such a bad thing while I'm trying to rebuild my account after tax time — after all, we do get more tokens for our efforts — but there's only so much depressing news a person can handle before... well... getting a bit depressed.

Not going to worry too much. There's always tomorrow! Right?

Hopefully tomorrow I won't have to waste three hours of my time on account recovery stuff.

You might wonder why I am still on Facebook... and it's mostly for family communication and updates. We don't have much of a good person-to-person messaging system here on Hive, and was can't create photo albums like Facebook offers... and those are two features I use for particular people.

Still feeling somewhat hopeful that we will have warmer and sunny weather towards this coming weekend — finally — so maybe we can kick off gardening season. We really are running very late this year... last I read, the period between March 1st and April 20th officially became the coldest in 80 years.

Oh well, I guess we'll have some very late tomatoes this year!
