2020-07-14 Doodles and the Art of (Not) Doing
It’s gonna be a full day today and I’ve got no time to lament. That’s good news. Maybe if I have idle I should turn to meditation or some other positive and productive activity instead of letting my brain spin out. I mean, not maybe. That’s what I should do. I know that, but I…

2020-07-13 Prognosis Pending
Mostly I’m just tired of saying I’m tired. Mostly I’m looking in the mirror and wondering if I’ll ever not feel tired. Or look tired. Some days it takes all the energy I have to appear awake and aware of what’s happening in the small, medium, and large circles I’m turning in these days. This…

2020-07-03 Yes, Person I’ve Never Met, I’m Judging You 😷
I almost wrote this post a few weeks ago after I had to make a trip to the pool supply store to get out pool water tested to make sure the chemicals were safe and balanced for swimming. Most of the trips I make outside the house are to get groceries or pick up prescriptions.…

2020-07-02 Between last night and today 🌙 … ☀️
Last night, as I neared the end of my day, my brain was full of all kinds of things to say. I felt happy and satisfied and looking forward to today and this holiday weekend and the rest of this summer. I should have gotten out my notebook and put pen to paper. I should…
