on saturdays, i usually wake up grumpy and cloudy and still full of the debris of the week behind me. i go to the farmers market, which is like yoga or running for other people. i think i don't want to go, i think i just want to stay in bed but i know once i get there, i'll be happy i did.
this morning i woke up and didn't fight my natural tendency to wake up early; i got up and i see the week behind full of possibility just like the weeks ahead...
i'm still going to the farmers market.

even though those flowers have seen better days, this picture still strikes me as optimistic.

there is something about living upstairs without a real porch up here that makes me feel like i live in an attic already, but it's not wretched. so it is not a garret. it really is quite happy. i just want to see more of the flowers somedays. . . .
