I accomplished a lot around the house on Monday before teaching began. I took care of leaves, laundry, cleaning the kitchen, scrubbing the bathtub, washing my study’s curtains, and painted the corner fence in the front yard, as well as the front porch’s awning posts.

Yesterday was grey, and Tuesday is damp and grey.

I lunched at El Toro and noticed the lightbulbs on the patio. They seemed to echo my internal dim lighting while grey skies hover.
