Today ...
- Still sick; throat still sore and swollen, despite almost a full week of bed rest, vitamins, soups, and soda water (and a trip to the doctor).
- T-i-r-e-d.
+ Planning my leave for 2026; discovered last year I benefit from taking extra leave during the year.
+ Bed rest has been nice.

The pines guard the silence with green hands.
The lake drinks the sky, a mirror of deep thirst.
Here, where the air smells of resin and distance, I love you.
The mountains sleep, but my heart is awake,
beating against the vast, blue cage of the afternoon...

I rescued an antique pink wallflower from the sad plants table at my local nursery; it cost $1.00. I hope I can coax a few more blooms out of it.
