This morning was another slow start. Tired of anxious and fractured sleep, I took an advilPM before bed which truly works well, let me tell ya’! Ahahaha! I slept solidly.
But Keely and I managed to herd each other out of the door by 6 am, which was fine since I am not going into the office today which gives me a bit of leeway on my schedule. (Gonna miss that when it’s gone!)
It was breezy and cool again, and quiet as always. I wonder if the pandemic has pushed me from “recluse” to straight-up agoraphobia as the last time I went to the park during the day and it was actually busy I nearly panicked. Crowded buses, when I ride them now (not often) do the same. I just feel pushed down on when there are people, especially strangers, nearby. I just do not want to interact.
My early morning walks are therefore so relaxing, overall. Dark shadows, low lights, sparse traffic, and a pretty night-dawn sky.
The only downer is that the water table keeps dropping and the promised rains keep floating away from us.
