Ennui

It is raining. It has been raining more on than off for several days. I struggle with the staleness of work, a colonoscopy- enforced rest from Crossfit and related activities. There is a malaise and unrest that is settled over me. I am reduced to fantasy on the order of WWTSD- What Would Tony Stark Do? I am 49 years old and find myself emulating a comic book character? Granted, he is really cool and hip AND morally ambivalent -more hero than super, but still...these are dangerous days. I guard against abandoning the ScionxB and speeding away in a Volvo C20.

10 Things I Am Digging Right Now

• Maisie's obsession with John Denver-although at times it is a little creepy.
• Toying with the idea of getting a new truck-someday!
• Shopping for a DSLR camera.
• Although this is not very permaculturally correct, the smell of freshly mown grass.
• My "new" Specialized Hardrock Mountain Bike.
• Maisie tooling around on her "new" bike in the driveway.
• Watching Frasier reruns.
• Mountain Magazine.
• Crossfit.
• Looking forward to seeing Snow White and the Huntsman and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Killer.

Friday Photo

{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. (Inspired by Soule Mama)
