Creating chapters

Um, some of what I said yesterday made sense, but other parts got muddled. Conveying emotions through words is never easy, but I try. Basically my mood seems to change by the hour and some of this comes through in my entries.

Yes, I am happy with some elements of my life, but other parts could use some improvement. I believe that I am on the edge of a new part of my life. Why I feel the need to create these chapters I can not say, but I will continue to breathe as much life as I can into this journal.

Well, I committed myself to another year where I live. What I mean is that I signed a new lease. If I still want to be here a year from now I can not say, but I signed a piece of paper saying that I would. It all seems so unreal to me. I have no idea what lies ahead for me. With this uncertainty comes a sense of freedom that I should embrace, but yet I hestitate at times.

With the recent end of daylight savings time, the reversal of night and day is complete for me. By the time that I am waking up the sun is setting. The early darkness makes sleeping late that much easier for me.

Ernest Shackleton. The latest issue of National Geographic had an article about an expedition of his to Antarctica at the beginning of World War I. He wanted to cross the continent on foot. They failed in this quest, but what these people endured instead is truly amazing. I think that I may have found a new book to read.

I need to rest for a while before I go into work, because I was woken up early. My neighbors dog felt it was her duty to make sure that I was awake this afternoon. The sounds she was making reminded me of the Three Stooges for some reason.
