it was a difficult day.
this side of the full moon leaves me feeling rather drained....it's a time when i want to retreat and not do much. i had a poem that wanted writing and a painting wanting paint but both were an effort and the feeling like i *ought* to be doing either was grating on my nerves.
i may have been a bit snippy.
grace and gratitude. such were the mantras of my day.
it always looks different in hindsight.
yes. i hear you...working with kids...it always seems to get crazy around the moon cycles...no joke...but grace carries us through...
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what you're talking about with any of those things.
ReplyDelete:)
I forget about it, then I am reminded and I think "Ah! That's why!" xx
ReplyDeletewow ... i think that day was contagious! you described my yesterday to a T!
ReplyDeletei felt myself thrashing in the net of what i wanted to be doing, but was unable to achieve due to lack of time, lack of focus (yeah, a clean house IS less distracting), lack of energy (hello Moon cycle) and most annoyingly ... lack of inspiration.
cannot wait to learn more about Chrimbly and loving the food play!

Ah hun.... *hug*
ReplyDeleteAt times like these, I find long hot baths with bubbles and a good book is the thing that calls me most....
