The sun is shining, the sky is a light, clear blue, the kind that is almost colorless instead of a brilliant azure, like it's already tired of clarity and bringing joy and is all washed out. It's the color I need today. The deeper the hue of the sky, the more I feel called outside, and since we are still inside schooling, and since I am still weak and coughing, staying in and ignoring the beautiful weather seems a likely outcome to the day.
After a week of bronchial distress and theater commitments, the holiday weekend was a well deserved reprieve. We cleaned house (I put the sewing away), we ate great food, we enjoyed some celebratory time with family. Oh, and we colored eggs.
