Once upon a time, not so log ago, I’d intended for this time slot to be the space for a more spiritual and soul-sustaining sort of post. It fell by the wayside because, quite frankly, I forgot about it, and those spiritual posts have been peppered throughout the blog, so I’ve been sustaining it that way. Now I find myself on a Sunday afternoon at the very start of spring, when the sun is warming the earth, and the feeling of hope and of possibility is making me both giddy and contemplative. That’s actually one of my happiest states, so I’m going to take this state and enjoy it for a bit.
Earlier in the day I did a minuscule amount of cleaning in the attic – and I mean minuscule: I moved two storage bins from the finished portion to the unfinished portion and called it a day. In that little effort however, I discovered that the unfinished part of the attic – which is not insulated and rather open to the outside elements – was retaining and multiplying the heat of the sun, like it does in summer. That definitely contributed to my happy countenance, and put a little spring into my step. So much so that I did a little more work up there (I found a single coat for donation!)
This is more a physical spring-cleaning post than a spiritual maintenance post, but one begets the other, especially when a Virgo is involved. Only when my surroundings are in order can my mind find any hope of following. Happy Spring Sunday!!
