Another work week begins. I am in a very strange place at work. There is so much change going on- it is like I have started working for a different company but with none of the excitement and anticipation that accompanies new beginnings. It seems like ages since Friday. So much happened over the weekend. Curve balls got nothing on me. My ability to mitigate the panic that wells inside is improving. That is something.
I signed up for pilates again. Committed myself to 16 weeks.
More found correspondence. In my crawl space I found two boxes of journals and letters from my early to mid 20's when I was contemplating being a nun. I think I might need to save them for the summer. I am not really in the right space to meet my old self just yet.
2011 is going to be the year we "do the work". Each of us. It is going to be labourous and exhaustive. This I already know.

may I join in "doing the work" ?
and I send deep breaths of peace as you navigate this work stuff. I would find that very unsettling.
and I love your photos. the muted calm, like meditation .
sounds like you're pretty loaded up. prayers continue for you and your family :)
Yes, it is a year of doing the work as you say; it is important to learn to be at peace; I am thinking a lot about this lately; read a great article on stillness lately through a monastic journal...
I have many journals from my 20's too; they are still at home, waiting.
God is with us.
What a treasure. Save those.
Love,
a.
