My New Favorite Word
It has been sunny. Sunny every day for the last week. Prior to this bout of mood elevation weather, it has been dark and raining for... a month and a half? Two months? Mud and pooling water begin to invade your thoughts over the winter. One way to keep from going totally bonkers is to bare your soul to the internet. Sort of like peeing in the wind, maybe not as messy.
The word that describes the blue skies and the sunny weather in Yamhill? Glorious.
Roll the "r"; seize the day.

The Review
2/11. That was my last full day on the island of Oahu in the State of Hawaii. i had to return the rental car and put in my last full day in the office. My desk had been cleared a week ago. The only thing left at home was what i needed to pack for the plane.
Starbucks at 1000 Bishop? Check. Oatcake ? Of course.
An empty house was waiting for my last night on the island, my new home was waiting three thousand miles away.
