sick and tired.

for real.  not of something.  a cold.  watery eyes.  running nose.  and a big day ahead with amazing students.  but, i'mhappy to figure out why i've been so exhausted the last two days.  getting sick.  it comes when you teach.  just a part of life.  it's not horrific.  i'm not feverish.  just sick.  and i'll be better later.  of course, i did have a moment this morning of pity.  nobody to make me some food to eat.  to be sure i'm ok.  of course, i haven't had that in years and years.  so....i made myself lemon water.  a cup of coffee.  if i'm hungry on the way to work, i'll grab something.  problem solved.  life is too beautiful and my joy is too full to be stolen over silly self pity.  only a few moments of it to remind me how much lovelier it is to live in joy.
blessings.
