bubbles

Bathing in my pool tonight I admired the green light of the water and the pale shadows cast by the almost-full moon across the garden.

Swimming laps I watched the bubbling foam flip away from my outstretched fingers during the sweep of each stroke. I wondered if the pool is something I should accept in my life as my goal, something I should strive toward achieving, or reject it as unseemly affluence.
I'm leaning towards enjoying what my parents have achieved and if I should achieve a pool, enjoy that too.

Spent hours today driving, unpacking, sorting and arranging. I'll be glad when Monday rolls around and I'll be all moved up to Gainesville and my room here will be empty of the excess it is crammed with during holidays. Moving is very tiresome.

Dreamland calls, and I finally get to sleep in tomorrow. Thank goodness for that!
