I am plum tuckered out picking up limbs around the yard this morning. Even with the sap running up the trees, the limbs are still breaking off like it’s the dead of winter. I don’t know what’s amazing me more, the amount of broke limbs I’m picking up or just how tired all this has made me. Anyway I’m here in my rocking chair not a cloud in the sky, with the wind steady blowing. While it's cooler today the birds don’t seem to be complaining. While behind me an EMC supervisor is yelling at his phone , looking like one of those crazies that used to walk the streets back home.
I woke up late this morning so my meds haven’t had a chance to kick-in yet. So my head’s a spinning. But the petunias along the fence line certainly smell lovely in this cool air. I spent the last two days in and out of doctor appointments and having test done. Yesterday afternoon I had to run into town to pickup my wife’s meds and do a little last minute grocery shopping. After fixing a dinner from scratch, which only my wife and I ate. Still I had a hard time getting to sleep. According to my CPAP app, I only slept about 5 hours. Although I can’t really pinpoint to any particular thing that kept me up other than the usual. But in this stressed out mass media world, who says it has to be anything major that’s stressing you out.
At the moment Buffy’s sitting on my lap being as alert as ever. Waiting to pounce at the slightest bit of alarm, but that’s just the nature of a cat. This morning I woke up to her sound asleep balled up next to me on the bed. I guess the thing is, we find peace wherever we can. My suggestion to you would be to get yourself out into nature. Maybe take a walk in a local walking trail or a park. Put down the phone become aware of your surroundings. Feel the crunch of the leaves under your feet, listen for the distinct sounds of the various bird songs. This creates a certain peace that will surround you. It’s a simple reminder that the pace of life isn’t always what we make it out to be.
