I think I’ve about had it. I think something is bothering him. I think she tries too hard sometimes. I think I must have overtaxed myself. I think it’ll be interesting to see who pays and who doesn't. I don’t think he got along with his dad. I think she’s about fed up with all of them. Really, I think it’s because his family is so weird. I think we just lost it. I think it’s all a crock. I think I’m sort of depressed again, or maybe probably just bored. I don’t think the pain was of the sort associated with heart problems. I think I have suffered a temporary loss of my mind. I think I’ll throw it all out if I have the energy. I think she’s a little worried about not having recovered yet. I wouldn’t have thought it possible. I think she feels that she got rooked. I don’t think he trusted her. God, I think I need to get a life. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to this, let alone ever get good at it. I think I’ll save that until he says it to me. I think I’ll go to bed early tonight or at least take a nap in my chair. I think he’s a little on the lazy side and always wanting something for nothing. I think we’re too old for all this activity. I don’t think he realizes. I think she’s exaggerating. I think I’ll enjoy a few days to rest. I think she must get bored, or lonely. Most of the time I don’t think much about it and when I do I can be rational and keep everything in perspective. I think I’m going to make the marinated vegetables. I don’t think we shut up once. I think that’s about all, I hope so anyway. I think there was some odd stuff in there. I don’t think anyone thought he was that bad, even his wife. I think I was more gullible than I should have been. I think I’m getting over it. I think I’m ok now. I think I’ll go downstairs and do some laundry. I don’t know what I think will happen. I think I am getting a cold. I don’t think I’ll ever fully trust him again. I think his cancer has spread. I think we’ll have a good time in spite of all my worrying. I think it’s time for me to go to bed.
