Winter in the Desert

In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer. Albert Camus

True story: Okay, what is going on, for real. This is my dear friend, Char, who lives here in Hidden Springs in the winter. She is from Albuquerque, New Mexico and her blood is warm. Obviously, real warm. I was in shorts and this is Char coming home from the pool on a windy/cloudy day. I think it was only 66°F ~ warm for me but not so much for her.

Passing Time

The moon dog sky. Wow, the ring around the moon is filled with stars. It's a phenomena caused by reflected sunlight. A visit from Jeremy. We talk. My emotions are healthy right now but I can't believe how I can spiral, funneling downward at a drop of a hat. Yesterday I heard someone call 'Mommy' and I had to give my head a shake.

The days are a blur. It's an amazing life style. I keep thinking there should be some substance but then realize it's okay to just drift and it feels good. I stay pretty active socially. It's in my nature anyway, but I know I'm doing it so I don't have to be silent and alone.
