Good morning. ☕☕☕

14 April 2025

Do you ever feel that sense of morning haze, where all you want is to lie back, stare into space, and empty your mind? I believe it’s often referred to as “mind fog.” It feels as though your brain hasn’t quite shifted into gear to take on the day. That’s exactly where I’m at right now. This morning, when I opened the door to let Ben and Charlie out, birds and squirrels scattered in every direction, leaving the bird feeder toppled on the ground. I just looked at it and thought, “Eh.” Struggling through morning tasks feels a lot like drifting aimlessly from one thing to another, waiting to land in a chair—like a butterfly coming to rest on a flower. It must be Monday morning.

"Hello, Monday! May I ask you a question? Why are you always back so quickly? Don’t you have a hobby?" - Unknown

Some things to try if you wanna:

- use "please" and "thank you" to express appreciation of others efforts

- smile at dogs

- speak kindly to children

- wash your hands during your day to day activities

- use your turn signals if you drive

- breathe deeply for a few minutes

Good #Monday morning, Mastodonians. We will only get up to 70° today, and it is cloudy. We had a few light showers during the night, but they passed quickly. Hopefully we will have dry walking weather. Sweetie still wants to go outside a lot, but hasn’t been eating much, so I don’t know what she thinks she has to get rid of. We will see how she does today, and whether we need to do anything further than what we are already doing. I am getting quite comfortable with the new laptop, and it is getting more and more the way I like it. There are still a few things I want to tweak, which I hope to do today. We have contemplative prayer this evening, which we usually do on zoom in the family room with my phone, but we just might try doing in our computer room on zoom with the laptop. We will see. I hope you are all having a good day.

It's the Day of Selene / Luna's Day / #Monday! 🌛

"Sweet voiced Muses, daughters of Zeus, well skilled in song, tell of the Long-winged Mene [Selene]. From her immortal head a radiance is shown from heaven and embraces earth; and great is the beauty that arises from her shining light. The air, unlit before, glows with the light of her golden crown."
Homeric Hymn 32 to Selene
