The secret to avoiding paid parking: Timing.
Highlights: 2nd night in guestroom while Jen's cold hopefully concludes. I've stayed clear and avoided exposure rather successfully. I got up extra early to take Tommy to his car and stopped by to Howes my coffee. Grand visions abound. Talked Tex, talked about our aspirations to capture our own stories (for what they are). On the way out to get the meat for dog food prep, I found that the two Palo Verde trees had been delivered. Mom ordered the larger options, much to our surprise. I'm working with Francisco on planting them this weekend or next week. I started the dog food and briefly met with Frank and Peggy before returning to finish it. I don't know right now if this will be a good use of time, as she and my views on the agenda and intention are not aligned. GNO at Urban Plates was good. I handed off coffee to Jess and returned home with a to-go for Jen.
Insight: My attempt to carve out a block of writing time each day is proving difficult. In part because of my restless nature and in part because revisiting so much of the past, in such detail, is difficult. Which may manifest as restlessness.
