What Has Been Feeding Me:
Living with artists. Shannon pointed out how rare it is to live with people who get as excited about art making as you do, and it is very true. There is constant affirmation and we are all on this wavelength of creation. How lovely it is to wake up and immediately find artists in their element. How could one not feel inspired?
Sunny days. For some reason I had resigned myself to expect a lot of cloudy weather, and while we have had some foggy days, there has been sun. Lots of sun! An immediate mood-booster.
The roaming cats. So many friends to be made, not enough time.
Californiu Dark Chocolate Raisins. In the literal sense, I have been living off of these. I suspect I will be 50% Dark Chocolate Raisin by the end of the month.
The pool, obviously. Specifically, the part of our curcuit that takes us from the hot pot into the pool is maybe my favourite experience ever. It is what I imagine heaven feels like. Pool culture here is unlike anything I’ve experienced.
The landscape. This is pretty broad, but I don’t think I could ever get sick of looking out my window. There is always a new way the light hits the water or the tide reveals a patch of sand. I get just as excited as the birds do!
My bedspread. It took me a week or so to realize that I am the only person with a massive galloping horse on my bedspread while everyone else has flowers and pink checked patterns. It has given me a lot of joy to sleep under that horse. I feel very protected.
Pesto Pasta. Enough said.
