Inside. A brass bell at rest.
Outside. What to do but burrow. (Hiding out is near impossible.)
Upside down.
My body. I keep waking at 3 or 4 in the morning and lie mostly hazy for an hour or two. While grateful for the additional hour or two I manage afterward, I can't completely let go of my preference for sleeping through and waking at 6 and having a couple of quiet, awake hours to myself.
My mind. PMS. Wedges created that puts me apart from others. Last night it was the kids. Instead of the usual, amoebic one body I feel as "us", I feel an acute need for separation. Difficult times and emotions ensue when this time of the month comes around and it's a depleted night time and Cap is not around.
Reset with a personal 4 element plan:
Water: an uninterrupted shower (Cap is home this morning with the kids)
Air: listening to Matt Pond PA's new single plus 2 b-sides
Earth: back into a post-birthday routine - Sag's art class, winter share pick up, Vinny this afternoon
Fire: hmmm...need something here...any suggestions?
Peace, people.

Comcast on Demand has a Yule Log that you can watch. It doesn't give off heat but you can hear the crackle of the fire. Maybe if you put it on, grab a cup of tea and read a book it will feel as if you are in front of a real fire. :-)
Great idea :-)
Cut a couple of slices of fresh ginger. Place in tea cup.Add just boiling water. Sweeten with honey. Feel the warmth spread.
xo
Ahhh, another good idea. Thanks. ♥
Candle?
Marshmallow roasted over the flame on your stove. Mmmmmm ....

Candles and toasted marshmallows... nice. :-)
