and now -

Steve and I went out to breakfast this morning in Sausalito. It is so quiet with the clouds and rain, and the Anchorage had only a few people, all absorbed in their morning Chronicle. I had to smile, as I had already read the news on-line, and yet, there is something so wonderful about seeing people with their morning paper, coffee, and eggs. It is such a lovely ritual. I am grateful for life, and thankful for existence, and I am over my flopping around like a fish out of water, trying to find the sea in the raindrops. The nausea has subsided, and breakfast tasted really good, and I was able to walk over and savor the smoothness of the morning bay, always a special treat. All is well with me, and I hope, also, with you.
