Greetings Sunday. Come on in...
Stiff back, morning yoga.
Steamed shower, poached egg.
Orange off the shoulder, blue flats.
Salty sea air, umbrella'd skies of gray.
Farmer's market, lemon and sugar crepe.
Sound of lens snap, forwarded film.
Double short latte, flirty walk home.
Long kisses in the kitchen, big green eyes bat their lashes.
Washed strawberries, goodness of fresh-caught (this morning) mussels.
Productive photo shoot, the kindness of friend and neighbor.
He leaves but his goodness lingers.
Wishes for boating, friends ever-hospitable.
Saying no because "I have a deadline."
Solo work day, article quite near satisfactory.
Loud Ulrich Schnauss, hours of photo editing.
Caprese on crackers, Montepulciano d'Abruzzo swirling in glass.
Living. Breathing.
Goodness.
Sunday.

What a lovely post!
I particularly enjoyed the line 'He leaves but his goodness lingers.'
You're a true artist and your words are so vivid and true.
Having you over for dinner WAS my self care, so I do owe you thanks!
p.s. Massively satisfying = "Saying no 'I have a deadline.'" God I love that!
My self-care Sunday was:
Early run around the lake
Lazy lunch + 2 margaritas
boating in the sound
An hour on the cabin deck watching the ocean
Unexpected romantic dinner on a deck with a view in Langley
Long trip home
*beam* what a brilliant Sunday, as Sundays should be.
My Sunday was:
Waking up early despite a very late night before. Feeling refreshed and spontaneous. Hopping off to church, under the great painted ceiling and soaking in words of faith and praise. Then adventuring up into the dusty, unused mezzanine which I am helping turn into studio spaces. Lunch with a brilliant friend. Seeing his studio. Hearing the rain. Drinking lemon and ginger tea in a room lined with books. Chasing the sunset across Sydney. Laughing into dusk.
DUDE
i just looked at the new pic of yourself below the header...STUNNING. you are beautiful.

;)
ps - my sunday saw an early start as i ran 5km at a city fun run with a friend; then went out for dim sum with some more buddies; then bought a new cellphone (blackberry storm, wannabe iphone), visited with my folks, planted some stuff in the garden...SUCH a nice day.
