Full moon hidden by the scuttling clouds as i drove Christine to the airport in the early hours. I knew it was precisely the full moon, as i knew a penumbral eclipse was ongoing.
The clouds caused an even greater block of my view of the moon.
Coots were huddled together on the bank of the water feature as i arrived in the rainy predawn gloom.
Rain during the morning. Midday it was clearing so i stepped out for an errand. Rainbows were low to the north east as the low winter sun shone in the blowing rain.
After dark, the bright moon rose again. When i glimpsed it through the blowing clouds i noted the bright companion: Jupiter in conjunction.
--==∞==--
I didn't mean to create suspense: my phone survived the fall just fine.
Today, i am thankful that my off-set commute let me avoid traffic misery. Christine got off with no turbulence or delay, and is safely at her sister's.
I saw the dentist and had my teeth cleaned, then went and had my hair trimmed, and got a manicure (nails buffed, no polish) and pedicure (champagne polish). I'm thankful my parents invested in braces for me, and i'm thankful for my genes that brought me nice hair, hands and feet. I appreciate the ease my conventional appearance provides me, and the gift my mother gave me in not passing on any appearance hangups.
--==∞==--
I do drive myself to distress, getting elevated and triggered. Just the sense of so much not going the way i wish it was leads me to feel triggered. My reporting, my organizing meetings, my responsibilities.... i want to have done a better job. This quarter seems so screwed up. I wish i had someone or something to blame. (We are so deep in code debt.)
--==∞==--
I am pondering that i should work on a development project. My first thought was i should Learn Python. But i think i will use the OO+UML training to design a project i want. Once i have the abstract architecture *maybe* i could code it, but maybe that would be a portfolio project to show off as it is... (and maybe finding someone to do the coding would make for a good engagement project).
