For the last three years, I’ve been having trouble writing. It seems I just can’t get that inspired about anything. It’s not that I don’t have ideas. I am having difficulty following through with other things besides writing, too, like working around my house, etc.

Today I thought I would just write about a trip I recently took to Switzerland. I looked at my journal–the last entry I made was on August 28th. What day is it today? Yes, it’s already September 20th. What is wrong with me? And I didn’t even finish the entry I made that day!

So I will begin again today. Sometimes I think it may have something to do with the fact that handwriting in a journal takes me longer and is more of an effort than typing. Yes, I have all kinds of excuses.

Maybe today will just be that I check in here and say that I have decided I am going to write about my trip to Switzerland, or that I’m thinking about writing about my trip to Switzerland. No need to go crazy, ha ha! No, I will at least write about the first day of my trip to Switzerland, which involved a flight from Cincinnati to Washington, DC. Then the flight from Washington to Zurich. Well, the flight from Cincinnati went just fine. It was the flight from DC to Zurich that gave this trip a very bad beginning.
