Journaling: Tuesday Evening: I regained my composure this afternoon and was ablt to work. Its times like these that I wish I worked a physical job and did not need to concentrate. It is so hard when your mind naturally wanders into the world of obsesive thoughts. You know this talent is called "focus" when it is targeted at things we can control. However, I have now found the dark side of this God given gift. Sometimes, I wish I could just give it back.
Anyway, the girls helped distract my mind tonight. The I took a little of Greek's advice and hung an oil painting that my W replaced shortly after we got married. It is of two soccer players colliding during a match. A very masculine picture. I had it over the mantle before we married. I did not put it back above the mantle, because I do like the picture we replaced it with. However, I did find another prominent spot in the living room above the sofa for it.
W flies in sometime this evening. I do hope she enjoyed her trip. I will probably send her our normal "how the girls did" e-mail tomorrow morning. It is something that she asked that I send her. So it will be nothing out of the ordinary.
