Remembering what was and who was here before
Bleary.
Up late catching up on accounting.
Awake now to pack clothes, make and pack food, shower, get rest of family up...our plan is to be out the door in 98 minutes.
97 minutes.
Off to Massachusetts for FIL's 70th birthday celebration/Thanksgiving meal. MIL's tomorrow. I'll be laying my head at Karen's tonight. Back late tomorrow night.
96 minutes. Gotta go.

Inside outside upside down
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.
