November 8, 2015, Prescott- I started today by attending breakfast at the American Legion Post, a standard for me on Sunday mornings, over the past four years. My usual table mate and conversation buddy was not there, due to illness, but there were several others at table, who were fine company. Many people are ill, at present. My phone had several messages, pertaining to a paternal aunt who is chronically ill. Fortunately, she is bouncing back.
Afterwards, I joined a reflection and planning meeting of our local Baha’i community, and made some solid plans for the next three months. Several people made their needs and wishes known, and we will do our best, as a wider community, to go forward together. The coordinator plans well, so the meeting kept flowing. Our next three months ought to be full, and fulfilling.
My energy level was a bit down, after yesterday, so I chose to do laundry, and little else, after the meeting. Change of seasons, and of temperature, zaps me for a day or two, and early to bed- for a few nights- will make things right again. My plan to hike Segment 7, of the Prescott Circle Trail, will be brought to fruition next Saturday- if the weather holds.
The best laid plans have to be as flexible as all else in the universe.
Sound lie a very busy day and sometimes the universe has a different adventure for us even if it is just laundry.

Agreed, and the laundromat brings various people into my awareness, even if for a few minutes, with stories of life that inspire me, on one level or another.

The weather has been terribly changeable recently — we have had a couple of cool but lovely days, but they are variably predicting both heat and rain over the next week or so! Yes, a good night’s sleep (or several) is the best prescription for the lethargy that follows the season.

I believe I will be early to bed for several nights indeed. The alternative is illness, which I will not willingly host.
