cloudy day

i read an email from a friend today and she brought up that she always tends to "futurize" her life because she was so busy. as i prepare to go to uk next week her comment makes a lot of sense. to get out of town requires a huge output of energy. work in the lab is stacked up. and have to get mom's pantry filled up. her medications on track. watering the yard arranged. so what is on today's menu? the landscaper is coming. it is a beautiful cloudy day. cool and fresh. just look at this day. relax. you know the list is there. write it all out and then relax some more. and take time to sink underneath the busyness - that is where life is happening in technicolor rather than the blended shades of beige and greenish brown of a normal day. show up for that meeting in the underground and all will sort itself out up on top.
