‘Tuesday - 5/31/2022 - 8:59AM - Outside at the picnic table. 79 degrees. Birds chirping. A lone jackhammer is having it’s way. Summer on the horizon. The pool opened this past weekend and the boys and I were there every day. It was a packed, crazy house. Not my kinda scene but the boys had fun. The girls were in NJ for a vball tournament. Now everyone is off to school/work and it’s just me and the dogs. I requested a couple of David Sedaris books from the library. I saw a snippet on the daily NY Times email about a new book release….read a little…and thought it might be just what I needed. Meanwhile, 3 squirrels are keeping me entertained jumping from branch to branch. I feel in a slump lately…but can’t really complain — life is good. I just feel sorta out of the mix. Disinterested. Not trying to dig too deep or think about it much. Feels good to write. Feels good to sit outside…for now…until the heat truly starts to kick in. Then I’ll retreat to the AC hum indoors. Outside seems/feels really alive right now.’
