Overnight, Apple-Chia Seed Oatmeal with Homemade Granola
Because I knew yesterday, when it was bright and warm and lovely, that I would really appreciate a warm and homely breakfast, as I listened to the wintry rain falling.

Vine-Ripening Cherry Tomatoes
They still taste pretty green even after they turn red. But I had to bring them inside.

Today I Was Overwhelmed With Grief
I practiced, including a Zoom class led by my friend Suzanne Lynch, I asked for help, I expressed appreciation to various friends and colleagues, I went out into the garden at lunchtime, made several more donations, and sat under the cat. And I re-centered enough to be able to persist.
I hope you all are finding your way in this. Let me know if you want to practice–on-line.1

Still Life
Cherry tomatoes and scotch bonnet peppers from the garden; high protein bread (used both pulp from homemade soy-rice milk and sourdough starter). Gardening and cooking are a grounding practice I am grateful to have.

State of the Garden
I woke up sad this morning. I gave a political contribution, sat for meditation, and went out into the garden before going upstairs to work. I’m still sad, but engaged myself in what I was doing for the full day–trying to take care of community and self and be absorbed in what I was doing so that it could be done most fully. My consciousness thus engaged elsewhere, I did not absorb time and energy with my sadness.
