These misty, Northern Californian mornings, fit my being perfectly.
Hike to the bluff and there are three chairs waiting for you to take a rest, and take in the ocean views.
😶🌫️ Waking up to a foggy and damp morning. Perfect for moving slowly.

🐲 I just paid a visit to The Dragon’s Den, a herbal medicine shop here on Maui. I was looking for a something to help open my lungs as I manage the tail end of pneumonia. I’ve come away with a couple of options, and hoping that I see some results.

☕ I’m drinking my first coffee for around two months. Being unwell just put me off the beverage, and then as I improved my acupuncturist suggested that I stayed away from coffee. This morning I felt as though I wanted to try some again. Right now it is feeling good.

I get up after a good eight hours sleep (not always guaranteed) feeling fresh and well rested. Half an hour later I am ready to go back to bed. 😩

Sounds of the night:
- crickets whistling
- geckos calling their territory with a sound like smacking lips
- a cow grazing
- voices
- cars on the nearby road
- dogs barking
- the wind through shrubs
All this as I sit outside in the refreshing air, reading.

I was driving to the post office this morning, and a mongoose suddenly ran out into the road. I tried to swerve, but it was too late, the little animal gave me no time. I hit it.
I turned around and drove back to see if it had survived, but sadly not. I lifted it off the road and laid it in the grass verge.
I regularly see small animals making a run for it across the road, chickens occasionally as well. This was the first time that one had been close to me, though I have been behind people slowing down for a hen and her chickens.
☹️ Waking up to the realization that the weekend is over.
