Oriental Lily "Latvia"
Sunday evening, almost 10pm, home from work--seven days in a row--tomorrow, Monday off, back to work at 6:30am on Tuesday...all of that a little overwhelming. My feet hurt, just an achey weariness.
The photo is of "Latvia" (mentioned in the post prior to this one), planted very late in the season, the bulbs were sprouting, a few of them had aenemic bloom-sprouts, and into the soil, within a week, they had popped up, and the one pictured has bloomed, very nice. They should be taller!
I chatted with Lauren in Alameda; today was Cate's 5th Birthday Party, Matt and family there, some friends; next week is Kaliya's birthday, such sweethearts. I feel a little displaced, out of the loop.
Jim, the roommate, had the entire week off, vacation, while I worked seven days in a row...I think he liked that I was not around.
Midwest Sky, Morning
An overwhelming sense of "sky" here, often...the flow, the depth, the color, the drama of the clouds. This "exile" blessed with atomospherics...part of the tumult of mid-continent living, storms sweep down from Canada, or up from the Gulf of Mexico, or from the Pacific, and pass over, or play out, lightening, thunder, shuddering wind, at night, as day breaks, as waves from the west, or north, or south. It amazes me always!
