making a come back

I'm feeling a desire to blog more. Could be the slower days of summer that are calling me back to this space. There's a lot of history here and I'd like to maintain it despite all my changes. I like how on some days when my fingers hit the keyboard they just start typing without much thought of the words. That's how I am trying to live right now, in the moment without too much thought of my past or my future.

So what does that look like right now?  We had a sixteen year old birthday, a graduation and two graduation parties this month. This weekend so far...I've only left the house once. I've been sitting outside all morning already have gone running and done yoga. Speaking of yoga, seems every time I take time for my practice I'm reminded on how good it is for me. The stretch, the holding of poses and of course, the sitting at the end. I get inspired here and there to do different forms of exercise but I always come back to running/walking and yoga. I don't even really have the strong desire to hike much more anymore. It's not that I don't like hiking, I do. It's just that I have done the hikes close to home a thousand times and those hikes are super crowded this time of year. I should also mention, I just don't like to drive all that much anymore.  I think I'm getting old!

I think that's enough for today besides the neighbor just started up his lawn mower so maybe I should go caulk the bathtub which is on my to-do list for today. Washing windows was on the to-do list for yesterday. Trying to keep up that list of home maintenance things. I should mention, my youngest is now driving leaving me long stretches at home in the afternoons. It's wonderful. It's in this moment I realize that my life is pretty good right now.
