today is all blue skies and brisk breezes.

remarkable

while driving to work, i am thinking how i have lost myself as a person, lost touch with my center. how i am not able to get things done. i go to work, yes, but is that all? where is my joy and creativity? reading, yes. visiting a brewery. the vegetable garden. but there is a hollowness that i cannot climb out of, that i want very much to heal.

and then, a wild thing happened when i got to work. a surprising thing. i found myself in a fantastic mood, filled with happiness and jokes and some giddy joy i was pleased to share with those i encountered. one of whom was poet Michele E. i had just started reading her new collection Purl this morning, and brought it with me to read if i had a chance. she signed it for me, with a personal note. i vibrated with excitement. 

when pulling into the driveway coming home from work, there was a possum! i stopped so she could do her thing, telling her how lovely she is. Greylin was also peeking up out of the culvert by the mailbox, LOL cute, silly boy. i told him to come on up and get his dinner.

 in an absolutely amazing event today, something went right.
