Rather Feeble Thursday Rhyme

Is it really only Thursday in the week?
And it's only August 8th? For when
I think of all that's going on, it seems
I've lived a month since July's end.
The list would be a bore and full of tension
with its ups and downs and (a word I like) its flux
but also good things I would like to mention.
Let's stick with them,
avoiding anything that sucks.
