My long weekend was all integrating my fur babies together and taking Waffles on daily walks and reading and playing fetch with Waflles while watering everything at work because it hasn't rained since before i got back and we have more than a week ahead without rain in the forecast and Farmer's market and LOTS of flowers and listening to Billy Joel music and plant shopping and flower/herb/nightshade planting and hauling dirt the entire damn length of Home Depot multiple times because I needed more than I originally bought and I got there after the garden center registers were closed. O and polar bears -- my dang facebook feed has ALLLLLL been polar bears, especially polar bear cubs with their mamas. And while I follow a lot of accounts with polar bear pictures on both fb and insta, it's not usually THIS dominant in my algorithms to be all I see.....

That's really all I had to say. I don't feel like I have much to communicate right now. Sorry, I just don't. I have a tranquility inside me and acceptance of what is and a sense of.... waiting to see how something outside my control unfolds? It's a waiting stillness with the an undefinable hint of promise woven through that what I am waiting on will be worth the stillness of giving it time/space to unfold in its own way.  Which doesn't make much sense to me either, certainly not logical at all, it's just the best I can describe a sort of burgeoning hope filled contentment tranquility unfolding inside my heart/soul..... And that means that given it's a reaction to something in the future I haven't precogged or seen in a fateline, it's either a happy surprise or it's sports related -- because those are the only two things I have intentionally and specifically asked not to ever have precogs about. Happy surprises because I love the feeling of being surprised by good things I didn't see coming and sports because it takes all the fun out of watching if you already know the end score or major plays. Those are the two big blind spots of my precogs and I intentionally asked and put those blocks in place to increase joy in my life. Bad surprises I get precogs of the events to prepare me, but happy surprises always blind side me because I asked not to know the happy things until I get to experience their unfolding moments. This FEELS like a happy surprise on my horizon hidden from my precogs because that's what I asked but I can already feel the light of the joy and love ripples whatever it is created in my future. 

That's really all I have right now. Just my truth that I have spent these recent days full of Farmer's market local produce and flowers and long walks and Billy Joel songs and dog time and kitty time and cooking and reading and getting my hands in the dirt and caring for all my green babies (inside and outside) and drinking copious amounts of coffee and tea. And polar bear pictures flooding my social media feeds.  So I'm pretty happily hermitting right now. Tomorrow my grandma has an afternoon appointment for me to take her to so Waffles will be at MCW with all the coworkers during that. And then after I get back form the appointment, my parents are coming in to reintroduce them to Waffles in context and we will figure out how we intend to introduce Sophie and Waffles to each other, biggest concern is Sophie tbh not Waffles. But I don't know if that will happen tomorrow evening because I will need to water everything again after another mid 80s sun baking day with no rain.... Mais on verra. We will figure it out.

Now. All the planting/watering I came in to do is done, Waffles is worn out from fetch (for now), and I have finished my second steep of this Santorini Sunrise black tea. So I am going to head out now and make a quick detour stop at my parents house to drop off some outside bells (Waffles is bell trained like Audrey was for at home to tell me she had to go out, but nosing the bells til they ring is what Waffles uses everywhere as her signal she needs to go outside/come back inside.) And then home and putting on some George Winston music and changing into pyjamas and taking out my contacts and putting on the kettle to make some herbal tea and lighting a beeswax candle. And then reading and tea drinking and piano music and fur baby snuggles and a cozy candle flame until bedtime summons me. Bonne nuit.
