Goodnight friends! Heat building like the panicky flutter of a held breath, a slow boil of gathering tension beneath a blankety pale grey sky. Only a tiny pinprick of an afternoon shower, dense and hard and brief, but the exhalation and rush of cooler mineral air brought a welcome diffusion and a temporarily cleared half blue sky.
Still definitely in a recovery period, definitely more mobile than yesterday in general, but more fatigue and more joint pain as the humidity swelled overnight and into the morning. Some fun drawing between long hazy bedbound periods.
May we find our curiosity and sense of wonder refreshed today!
