Ten.One Thousand, Five Hundred & Twenty

1. Night sweats. Must mean it will be hot today.

2. Change in plans. Roll with it. There’s nothing you can do about it now.

3. I am early enough that I can sit in the car and finish up emails and posts and still be early for work. But I really need to figure out this new routine.

4. Brix and temp.

5. It’s better to be slow.

6. I pick leaves from the berries on the sorting table and try to write the article in my head. I think of everything that needs to be done. There is something meditative about this process. I forget to switch and make additions, but the other two have it covered.

7. Tacos and guac.

8. And….there it is. Right on cue. I laugh on the inside, but it’s more sad than funny.

9. I ask them for help. I tell them that I need them to go to their father more often for things. I am not home all day like I used to be. I tell them that there are many things happening right now and I just can’t remember. I need them to rely on their father. They seem to understand.

10. Thank goodness for leftovers.

11. I can do this. I’ve done it before.
