It's been a challenge: finding joy in life when the joy of my life is out of town. But I've been making great effort. I did manage to laugh today.
A great invention. |
Headed out on the trail (Oh, and did I mention how vehemently I dislike Daylight Savings Time?), walking along in the pre-dawn-grope-my-way-along-the-trail-darkness something streaked out of the bushes alongside me and gave me a fright. It was an orange cat. (How do I know it was orange? My new flashlight.) She trotted next to me like she knew where I was going. Then decided to thread her way between my feet, tripping me up with her need for petting. She walked next/behind me for roughly a quarter mile. Sort of enjoyed it - except for the foot tangling thing she caused.
Had occasion to use my machine again later today. Stitching through three layers of strap webbing and a layer of canvas can be difficult going. And while the machine made slight noises of protest, it just kept on going. Now if I can only figure out that bobbin thing.
And I've spent most of the last three days here at home. I'm thinking tomorrow might be a "get out of the house" day. What luxury to have the choice.
Tonight's gratitude: for good hugs.
