Maybe today

Sunrise from my wicker rocker at my bay window in my bedroom

I’m pretty much in a self induced quarantine, maintaining physical distancing. I think I’m adjusting to doing without my lattes and coffee shop community, although it is not easy. Morning coffee is made with a french press and I bought some different coffee beans that I really do like. In many ways it’s nice to spend a bit more time at home. I’m also getting in a walk or two each day for physical health and sanity.

Right now I’m in my wicker rocker looking out the bay window of my bedroom that faces southeast. The sun has just crested the neighboring apartments so I now have bright sunshine in my face and almost done with my cup of coffee. So,what to do with a full day ahead.

Some of you may not believe this but I have a corner in my living room where a pile of stuff is slowly growing in height and width. I’ve always told myself the reason I have not picked up this pile in the corner of my living room was because I didn’t have the time. Well, I now know that is not the reason. 🙂 Maybe today. Or Saturday.

Retired. Having fun shooting Fujifilm cameras. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku. Have a love for fountain pens.

    Tom is right, it’s definitely all in the timing Monte. You don’t want to rush these things 🙂
    Good to hear you are doing okay. And it’s clear that isolation has not impacted your ability to see cool scenes worth a photograph, so that’s nice to know too 🙂

    It’s become a running joke between Bonnie and me that we’ll ask each other, “So what’s on your busy schedule to do tomorrow?” Of course, the usual reply from the other person is to list the most mundane daily tasks making them sound critically important. A little humor might be all that gets us through this. So enjoy “dancing” around that pile of stuff, it will wait. 😉

      I did a good job of dancing around it yesterday. I find it interesting that I was really into cleaning when I was younger, 20-40s, but it’s just not as high a priority at this stage of my life.

    If you could see my office Monte, you wouldn’t fret about any corner piles at all. 🙂 hope all is still well there.
