caught in limbo

Latly i'm stuck in a sort of existential and monetary limbo. I just moved from California to Arizona for family reasons and to finish my college education. For the last couple of weeks I have been caught in that uncomfortable state of waiting. Waiting for my college papers to finish processing, waiting for a job, waiting for my grandfather to die. It has been an odd sensation to be waiting at once free of stress yet filled with anticipation for something to happen. To top it all off i've been unable to focus on anything beyond the present day, so i haven't been able to make any real plans to get anything done. And that very inablity to make plans becomes in itself a source of tension that i am unfamiliar with.

How do you focus a mind that is already focused. how can a mind be redirected into the unknown?
