I've been trying to pack for the weekend's camping trip. I can't imagine being anything other than boiling hot. My head (which hasn't improved much since yesterday) is telling me that at night it may actually get cool. I have stood outside in the slightly cool evening air and managed to hold onto my resolve even when I get back to the inferno upstairs where I am packing. There is now a fleecy shirt in my bag.
I have also taken out the small book that I don't really want to read and replaced it with the heavy hardback that I actually do want to read. I am learning.
Hopefully I'll feel well enough to go to tomorrow's morning meeting. And then take it easy enough to be well enough to drive to Silverdale - where I will miss the internet (well my friends that are on it) but will enjoy some quality time with my friend and our kids. I'm aware that I really miss people when I'm not with them - but I also know that nonetheless I can simultaneously enjoy the company of whoever I'm with if I choose to. I feel I'm getting better at living in that moment and connecting with whoever is there - even the anaethestist this week. So, much as I'd have liked to have had someone I knew already and loved holding my hand in that moment, I couldn't. So I loved the ones who were there. They were a friendly bunch so that was alright!!
I hope you have a love and joy filled weekend whatever your location and temperature xx
it is still phenomonally warm. but there are most definitely clouds - even grey clouds. perhaps i should rethink the packing entirely??
