sunday morning.


it still amazes me how much teaching can take out of me. i am full load now, and last night i could hardly stay awake at dinner after a long week. i slept almost 12 hours straight, and feel renewed today. woke up craving my coffee and sunshine. pruned the fig tree, watered the roses, and sat in my blue patio chair. realized that it is worth it to pay a little extra for the darker brick i want for my patio, and imagined a table full of succulents against the garage in the sun. it's good to feel the breeze after sleeping hard, and i'm thankful for quiet. this butterfly surprised me with the pattern on the back of his wings, and on this day of rest, i feel content to do little and store up for days ahead.
