Alone again
Oct. 13th, 2021 09:56 amDH went in to work today after being sick and having stuff to do here. It's nice to be alone again. I can't rely on this to be normal though. I should adapt my days to the situation. A nice walk this AM along the Muddy. Sometimes it's nice to just walk out the door.
Last night we went to Hamilton for dinner. It was rushed but nice to sit outside. We've got some clarity on the reconstruction project. We decided to schedule for when it works for US. Waiting until after Violet's show and bday before we start work and move out.
Fun this AM looking at Cape houses for Thanksgiving. We're looking to be on the lower Cape, maybe even back in Brewster. And a real house. We need something nice to give us a break from this. Though at that point work might be done and we'd have been living elsewhere. I'd like to be walking distance to a beach with two baths. A real kitchen of course.
Enjoying watching Northern Exposure. They really hit their stride last night with Chris's brother and Adam. Finished one Wallender and I will try the next. Fun to see a young Hiddleston. Curious though, how many shows have the trope of old powerful men holding women as sex slaves and abusing their daughters. Is this because it really goes on and we can't stop it (Epstein and his ilk) or because it is a fantasy. It is the worst thing? And do men really think like that? Why do I wonder?
It is in October when the voice of the forest becomes the most insistent. Long summer days go by with the distraction of bird song, waves, music and laughter. As the light fades, and other sounds are hushed, you can hear what has been hidden. What has been calling. And so you must walk to meet it.
