Goodnight friends! Early dour rain cleared out by more ferocious, oceanic, blisteringly cold wind, painful chill ringing in my ears, teetering on the edge of 0°c. Clouds piled up and carved away into uncanny, cavernous vaulted arches and writhing misty vertebrae. Beneath the trees sweet violets and other stubborn shoots press upward through the rattling grey leaf litter.

As low key a day as I could make it and still feel like I’m taking care of myself – made easy by the way the cold sapped my energy, leaving me with long hours needed to warm up and relax. Excited for hopefully a decently built up reserve of stamina to go into town tomorrow.

May we find joyful, trusting and playful companionship today!
