I'm masquerading as someone else entirely.
Watered plants this evening, dream of baking closer with every second. About to hop in the bath, after three swims and a korean bathouse soak last week am feeling very landlocked. Need the change in elements, something about water really shifts the accumulated weight of daily life. Houseminding for friends with a gorgeous spacious yet cosy family home. Living vicariously with that linen cupboard!
Chilling out to their fine collection of female C&W singers, lucinda williams, gillian welch, emmy-lou harris. The kind of music I try to find on am radio when I can't sleep at night, but strangely never seem to get round to buying. Very soothing for the soul. No matter how hard I try to cling to the recent past, my life seems to be transforming around me. Weirdly with very little effort other than imagination.
Doing 'a little painting', brand new diy transit radio lounge idea taking on a life of it's own, an old path falling away, a new one suddenly firm and clear.
A few things to consolidate and follow-up on after all this work, but guess they will happen in good time.
It's fun to rediscover the playfulness you can approach life with, not be so damn serious about everything. Making tiny steps towards something new.
