The high notes:
Rambling in the woods + fields with Clover.
Watching her run off leash through the high grass in our meadow.
Putting up colored lights around the big pine tree + house. (I am completely crushing on the big fat colored ones this year.)
Finally, finally building a fenced enclosure for the chickens: no more poop on our front steps!
Holding hands with T on a walk.
Being reminded by a beautiful friend that I need to share my silly side with the world more.
Singing Christmas carols at the top of our lungs in the car everywhere we went.
Nutella.
The way that new possibilities keep flooding into my life right now.
Running every day again.
And the low notes:
Staying up until 2:30 last night to finish (and then not finishing) an assignment for a class I don’t dig at all.
Clover rolling in poop and getting it all over her ear.
Not having enough hours to hit all the deadlines.
The way that I catch myself hunching all the time. Stupid sitting at a desk posture.
Feeling my breath catch in my ribs when I think of my to-do list for the next two weeks until my semester ends.
