On Pause

It’s sorta good to have a break.  The sort of break where there are minimal expectations.  The sort of break where I can do nothing or do heaps.
Even going on holidays is different.  We spent around nine days in southwestern Australia a few months ago.  It was a great time and we saw heaps.  But that was different in that every day something was planned to do (having one day sick in bed did not help, and having someone die on the bus we were on was not an activity we had pencilled in).  Yet for all that being a great time, it was a go go go time.  This time is different.
Right now most of our regular activities are on hold.  They start again in February.  We will gear up before then but right now we are laid back and can concentrate on what we want to do around the place.
There are a couple of things that are very much in our interests to get done.  For example last night we ran out of gas.  It was not very well planned, but so be it.  It did not help we had others staying in our purpose built totally sperate unit.  They were on the same gas supply, so usage was different to what we were used to.
Good thing it is summer.  Isn’t it amazing how these things happen on the weekend.  Often nothing can happen until a working day.  Still an inconvenience but a first world problem I would say.
So is my stamp dilemma.  One of the presents I got was something I wanted to do with stamp collecting.  It is a stand we see advertised for putting jigsaws on and putting away for future use.  I thought a stand like that would be ideal for sorting stamps on.  We got one on Temu, which I imagine was much better value than what is advertised.  It has six draws for holding yet unused pieces.
I chose a country at random and discovered I have stamps for that place in three other places.  Bit of sorting to do.  But I really like that I can learn heaps about a place while sorting and setting up.
That is the sort of thing I have time to do at this time.  At other times I make time.
Anyway I like laid back.  I am that sort of guy most the time anyway but right now I reckon I am closer to comatose.
