saturday.

waking up to the love of two kitters.

a 2nd job to go to [when some people don't have even one job].

the customer's little son...probably 6...who so very obviously loved music and proceeded to keep rhythm with the store's radio by banging congo drum-like on our protein tubs.

my coworkers...especially meno and laura.

meno's cd he made for me...and various tongue-in-cheek texts of encouragement throughout the week.

eating my lunch hunched under the eaves of the roof in the rain.

the young guy who came walking over the hill as i ate my lunch in the rain who yelled out over the downpour while pointing my way, "now, THAT'S whatchu call a KODAK MOMENT!". he made me smile.

the customer who told me, "you really know you're stuff....i like that!".

hot tea.

good thrift store finds.

pantaleimon's "trees hold time" cd...so like contemplative oxygen of late.

living through to the other side of sorrow.

a long evening walk with pema in the garden.

getting my laundry done.

blessed sleep.
