Goodnight friends! A snap change back to heavy, gloomy skies, though still very warm. Enough of a wind to not feel quite as humid as it could, and for the round overlapping linden leaves to flex and judder like the scales of a restive serpent. Tufts of deep violet blue common meadow-grass, shaggy yellow heads of hawksbeads and hawkbits and sow thistle all nodding along. A brief but heavy thump and sigh and clatter of afternoon rain, releasing the tension somewhat and opened up the sky for a long, luxurious pale lilac evening.
Keeping things slow and low key, trying to balance keeping a consistent sustainable pace that lets me do things with being well rested for the mini weekend trip coming tomorrow. A little more clarity of thinking and focus, but still really feeling myself running out of brainpower over the day.
May we find confidence and courage to learn and fail and grow today!
