Its 3 am election day 2022 as I start writting this post. There is currently a total lunar eclipse currently underway. I look up to catch a glimpse but cloud cover is dense and the event remains hidden from view. Despite it being obscured, the energy is a bit wild and whipping up an underling sensation of 'anticipation'. For what? That remains to be seen.
The passed week was as uneventful as the previous. Which is to say, not to much has been going on. Our regularly scheduled activites were slowed down and halted in some areas. Both the kids (All 3 if you count the one that isnt mine who practically still lives here) have been fighting what appears to be RSV. Its nasty stuff. Having recently watched an interview with a mortician willing to talk about he has begun seeing in bodies in a post pand-emic world doesnt help put my mind at ease about their health. If you wish to listen to this disturbing information you can find it here. The kids all appear to be on the mend and maybe all will be well but my level of worry/ caution re: all of this is at high alert and will not be wanning anytime soon.. Cherish every moment people. Time for so many grows short. My gut has suggested that i harvest what eggs i have left. That they might be needed to repopulate the world. But does the future world really need my lame autoimmune compromised DNA living on, struggling to exist in a ravaged world after the great population decline that has been put in motion? I dont necessarily like that idea but still a part of me says to still look into it.. for the future of humanity. Are we all that special though? Hamans are a flawed species. Perhaps it is not worth trying to fight fir that future. Its a dilemm im going to keep considering. Perhaps with a little genetic manipulatuon, my flaws can be deleted from the code and a new 'species' of perfectly built humans can arise!
Anyway.. lets get passed the doom and gloom talk. The kids are still ticking and I rejoice in whatever time I have left with them. So what other events/ things are going on? The weekend was spent relaxing/recouping. Greg an I have ebeen fighting a touch of this rsv stuff outselves andvso lots of extra sleep was on the agenda. Although windy, the tempurarure soared once again into the mid 70s. Shit th snow on halloween is not uncommon in these parts so hot and humid in November seems absurd. Anyway its been great for the garden which continues to produce. I didca big finally harvest yesterday and anticipate making a ton of krispy kale later today.

Have you ever been lying in the floor and looked up at the ceiling to realize it requirw more contempatuon than you had ever given it before? I had not either until the other day. When i was doing some floor exercises (Did I mention that I have been working a tiny bit with connors trainer?) Anyway, the spattering of light mixed with the charactor of the wood beams created quite a scene where a few different images can come to mind depending on how you see it. Im considering comibg back to paint it in a way that the 3 or 4 different perspectives all pop. Yes. I bought some canvases to get back to some painting. Now thar the time has changed and the nights are longer, the mood to lean into the darkness with a paintbrush in hand has caught me. First however i need to finish my xmas craft/gift project. Im so much more on top of things this year, I might just actually get holiday cards etc in the mail in a timely manner this year.

Well its almost 5 and the start of the day grows near. Time to turn my attention to my chores. Today I drop another round of resumes. We will see what comes of that.
