Goodnight friends! Broken sky more expansive, azure windows bordered by hazy silver frames, broad pillars of cloud burnished to blazing white by sunlight they couldn’t completely swallow. Still around 5°c, wind fitful and damp, but along with the taste of rain a faint but growing green scent. More and more little green sprouting things in sheltered nooks and corners.
Trajectory to recovery feels very much set now, mostly just heavy, stuffy sinuses and a bit of extra fuzzy-headedness. Felt comfortable to take a full length walk for the first time in a few days. Got some laundry done and a bit of admin, slowly slowly reshuffling some cards I fumbled over the days of the cold.
May we find a renewed sense of clarity and purpose today!
