This has always been one of my favorite poems:
Living Alone ~ D. Scott Taylor
It's amazing
how many more things
you do naked than before.
how many more things
you do naked than before.
Today I made waffles.
I'm not going to say anything about dress or undress, but I did have some time completely to myself today, and sometimes that can be soooo refreshing! While my parents were at a potluck, I had the red car all to myself so that I could go where I pleased at whatever pace I wanted.
Self-portrait
Firstly, I sat in the car at Boggy Point and watched blue herons in a small rookery across the way. They're getting ready to nest, preening each other and bringing in sticks. I also saw a yellow-rumped warbler in the brush beside me.
Then I walked part of the Orange Beach Backcountry Trail, taking my time and even sitting in a swing along the trail. No rush.
A stop at the Publix grocery got me some gluten-free rice chips I have never tried.
I ate a lot of them while sitting in the car at Florida Pass.
Then I got out and walked the sand barefoot, slowly, stopping when I wanted to, and choosing just ONE shell to take home.
Thanks for taking me along on your walk this way. I am so happy you had a day like this. It is so good for the soul.Old Hat
