Me Today

Today started when my alarm went off a little after 7 but then actually really started when I heard Vikki's voice saying my name and checking if I was ok. It was about 9:30, and I am usually at the top of the hill before the 8:30 meeting. Opps! Apparently I needed a little extra sleep...
I jumped right into the kitchen.
It felt a bit like my college lifestyle not eating much of a meal until lunch around 1 PM. It was a really good meal too! Butter bean/barley/onion tail soup with some leftover (vegan) shepherds pie, and a bit of green salad. Yum!
Kitchen kitchen. Yay for music, laughter, chopping, conversation, and working together.
A bit past 5 I left the kitchen. When the next shift holders came in I didn't want to leave but I am glad I did. I walked down to my tent (barefoot for the first time for the day) to grab my tooth brush and sat by the lake for a bit - appreciating, thinking, loving, and thinking.

Picture this: welly boots on, my blue skirt from the charity shop in Paignton from my hips to mid shin, a top with a white light weight front part and a wool like sweater down my arms and around my back covering my upper body, a taste of blue peeking out of the v neck of the shirt, my cleu necklace hanging from my neck, a day old french plate/braid starting in the middle and weaving its way around the right side of my head, a simple curly ring, a worn piece of string around my wrist, and a mind that is eager/alert/energized/inspired/happy  -- that is me. And has been for about a week now :)

I am happy with my life.
