May to June

So May came and went! I meant to write a monthly update in May, but here we are in June, with me duking it out with my story muses still. 🙂 For my sanity, I’ve chosen to unplug from the devastating news that I was reading on the daily. Bad news will always exist, but I need my sanity. So, I took a deep breath and have unplugged from news as much as I can. Not sure how long that will last, but I need a break.

On the bright side …. Summer is coming and I’m so happy about this! For me, the feeling of sunshine, breezes and heat seem to stretch out the hours into memories in a way that few things can. Even dusk is demanding of daylight, which means the sun sets much later. I’m lucky enough to hear birds in all hours of the day, and honestly, getting my dose of sun, birds and swimming is what makes California amazing this time of year. For the duration of late spring and summer, I feel like I am perfectly in my place in the world, and I enjoy when the sweltering heat gets to the point that I need to find a body of water to jump into. Now that COVID numbers are going down, I am torn between loving the introverted world I’ve been living in and wanting to explore the external world again. Well, let’s see what stories June brings! 🙂

I wish you all happy reading,

DD
