Having gotten up for an early morning hike, now I am tired and wish I were still hiking. I liked being in the forest at an early hour, when the slant of the light is striking and unusual. There was a lot of wildlife still out: rabbits, deer, even a fishing raccoon. Saw a very pretty, muscular snake the color of obsidian and then later, a big old cricket the same shade when I was mowing the lawn. I must be so lucky. My janky horoscope suggested that I don't listen to the relentless ones saying no, fond, soft advice I will take, at least for a little while.
I ought to do a few chores, but right now, I'm just sitting on the front porch. The yard is looking good--I planted a few more tomatoes and jalapenos, and weeded all the beds. I have a little bit of a headache, but the breeze is soft, playing, and I'm drinking a glass of cold white wine. My sunscreen is making my eyes water.
