autumnal

Long (good!) teaching day. It's like clockwork: midterm comes around and I realize I love my students. Things have been difficult at home this year, so I worried I wouldn't be able to connect... but Whoomp, There It Is! "I'm taking it back to the old school/'cos I'm an old fool." I'm glad to know my heart still works.

Big A is back in MKE; Nu hung out at a friend's until I got home; roofers didn't show again; I got to see At on a live podcast last night; Nu and I got most things checked off our list today. There are some yays in there.

Ordinary days can be good.

Nicole: "Can you dig it?" 😂 I can't say I haven't used the song as a personal mantra forever.

Thank you, Steph and Gillian!

by the time this day ends  I've  run  out  of  prayers but  I've  made  an  altar where  I grimly offer up  my  pride,  my  surprise...
