Thank you for being honest, real, and a beautiful mess. I am also a beautiful mess and this post reminded me I need to go hiking.

I have struggled to find a topic to write about for two weeks. I don’t want to add to *flails around wildly* all this, but it’s hard to focus elsewhere. I am, fortunately, surrounded by nature and beautiful souls, in my dogs, but I don’t have much to say. I feel kind of bloated on all of the things and perhaps metaphorically need an enema!!!

Covid. Sad. Isolated. Confused. There are trees in the yard but all i can think about is having to remove the rotten ones.

I’m so sorry honey. The isolation is tough. It does pass and it does get better but I am thinking of you today.

My therapist told me it was possible to get rid of the tension in my neck and I would love to believe her, but I’m not sure I do.

I think that we all need to go out and listen to some birds and wind through the trees. Let’s just take some deep breaths and think about the beauty that this world holds. Namaste.

An inner and outer moat? Is this like having an inside/outside pool? More details please. And where was this place? And why were you sent there? Inquiring minds want to know. Or, y'know, just MY inquiring mind wants to know. LOL
