Lacklustre

We’ve got 5 new chickens, and said goodbye to an old one.

We’ve got the first flower ever on our banana palm.

We’ve seen blackbirds build a nest, raise their young, and teach them to fly right outside our kitchen window.

We’ve seen the Elk-horn in which the blackbirds nested fall to the ground not long after they left.

I’ve had a vasectomy, I’ve bought new shoes.

We’ve heard King Parrots calling to us, asking for seed.

We’ve had pigeons knock themselves out on the kitchen window.

We’ve taken our daughter to the chiropractor. Alot.

I’ve bought stupid toys that I’ll probably never use.

I have not broken 5 hours sleep for weeks, although it feels like years.

We’ve got friends who are thinking about moving out near us.

We’ve got friends who are moving out near us next week.

And I do not feel like writing about any of it.

Sleep is the holy grail. Not breaking 5 hours sleep in weeks completely explains feeling lacklustre. It’s amazing you’re feeling anything!

hang on – your mojo will return…

seems to be a lot of change and turbulence right now, but all this will pass, and we’ll still be here

hugs, vetti
