I spent two hours on the motorcycle one warm afternoon this week. Hypnotic is the only word that comes close to describing. No less than a million thoughts, nothing needed solving...nothing got solved. I'm breathing a big sigh of okness lately...knowing that life being good is here to stay.
The colder weather has brought out every possible color and style of dog sweater in my neighborhood. The best I saw on a last poopy before bed walk when I was passed by a guy on a skateboard with a pekingese in a red striped "Where's Waldo?" sweater struggling to keep up and not be dragged and rolled into a candy cane. As much as I was convinced a few weeks back that 60 degrees was as cold of weather as I could ever be exposed to...ever again, there are few beach walks sans sweatshirts and I've actually worn real shoes long enough to realize I will live. Not a fan of the season change but it sure does work for clearing off the beach...the upside of having to zip the jeep windows back in. For the last two days I can count on my fingers the number of people me and Roger have encountered on our walks. It affords me my crazy time of talking to the dog about the world as I see it, even when he's more interested in sniffing and not having to worry if an Ohio tourist is ease dropping. I've always been a bit of a hermit and have a capacity limit when it comes to how many people I can have close in my life. I'm no good at giving a tiny bit of my attention...I'm currently all in and I just don't have the need or where-with-all to keep up with lots of people or a heavy social calendar. Me saying heavy social calendar is only funnier if you know me.
Oooohh there's another reason for my cold weather whinings to stop... Stone crab season is back!!
How in the hell I managed to circle the sun so many times with no knowledge of the stone crab I will never understand. It has been my crush love since my Florida trip last January. Velcro promised me that I would never have to crack my own crabs...and I haven't. This was our lunch on a Wednesday...I'm sure it's what everybody eats mid day mid week. I need someone to tell me how life gets any better than this.
I am in a really good place and the one that my mind goes to when it wanders is there with me. It feels like some kind of a ride, but it's turning out just to be life going absolutely perfectly.
