today

 

i am missing my garden and trusting she is growing and waiting for my return

 

i am enjoying being 6 pounds lighter, but also wise to the folly of pounds lost due to sickness and strife.

 

i am consuming warm cups of chicken broth made by my dear son along with my water and i am feeling my brain clear away some of the fog that settled during the 5 day fast.

 

i am wrestling with the reality that my body didn't respond as hoped or expected these past days and i am having to continue with a liquid diet for longer...

 

i am enjoying helping my friend create a welcoming classroom because even though i am too weak to move stuff, this girl still lights up with the opportunity to create learning spaces.

 

i am watching our newest house member move his belonging upstairs to his room and i am delighted to see the whole family working together to help him get it done

 

i am tired and sore and weary but i am also so lifted up by the care that is being extended to me daily

 

i am anticipating tomorrow
