I feel like a failure I queued six posts and I feel exhausted. I’m going to crawl into the birds nest and see if I feel better after a nap.
Tomorrow’s post is totally lame. I’m trying to decide whether or not I want to just delete it and wait until I feel like a normal human again.
Sorry loves ;{

A flock of sheep that leisurely pass by
One after one; the sound of rain, and bees
Murmuring; the fall of rivers, winds and seas,
Smooth fields, white sheets of water, and pure sky -

Sleepless…
~William Wordsworth, “To Sleep”Lit à La Duchesse En Impériale
ca. 1782-83
