Gravitational Pull

I'm feeling at peace for the first time in a long time.

Maybe it's the break in the weather.

Maybe it's having had a little time away from the chaos at work and getting a little perspective, resetting my priorities. Triage protocol is to handle the most serious and life threatening conditions first. Flight attendants tell you that you have to put your own oxygen mask on before putting it on the shrieking toddler next to you. I'm working on that.

I made it to the gym for the second time in a row this week (albeit late). Ah, the endorphins... how I've missed the endorphins!

I ran some errands after the gym with the top down on the car and tonight I fell in love with the moon. At one point it was gold. Didn't matter where I was ... I couldn't tear myself away from it. When I got home I stood at the end of my driveway staring up and said a prayer of thanks.

    Your blog is the random favorite blog of the week on Austinist.
