I love having energy.
I started making myself work out again. Just a 20 minute workout at least five days a week. It's not much, but it's a start. I've been on it for about a month now.
And my energy level is up. Which is so amazing. I mean, I still only sleep about 4 hours most nights, but I have so much more energy during the day, so it's a total win in my book!
Next step is to incorporate a couple miles of walking, biking, hiking...something.
Something outside. because fresh air and trees are among my favourite things in the whole big wide world.

Day ninety-one - I love...a small jungle
I seem to have a mini wildlife preserve in my back yard.
There are several trees I don't know the names of, an evergreen, a honeysuckle bush or two, bamboo, and a magnolia in the yard across the alley.
every morning I wake to the sound of birds chirping.
I've seen blue jays, cardinals, robins, finches, blackbirds.
there are half a million squirrels, at least two cats, and bunnies who live in the bracken in yard next door.
I've learned that nobody likes tomatoes. but these creatures will eat the crap out of butter lettuce and radicchio.
and mushrooms. someone loves the mushroom stems.
and...the sunlight in the afternoon is absolutely incredible...makes me want to get out my camera, but I'm usually so enthralled by my little nature preserve that I can hardly tear myself away long enough to go get my camera.

Day twenty-two - I love...worn out used up buildings
I've always been fascinated by old, abandoned, worn-out, falling down houses and barns.
they have been worn by time and circumstance, but for some reason, they still stand, on shaky foundations.
and I am awed by the brilliance and determination of nature pushing her way through, because she absolutely will not be stopped.
here, a handful of photos I've taken in the last few years - pieces of a collection I've been compiling.
