Flowers by Irving Penn

“We got real furniture. I mean, it was Salvation Army, but it was real. Our names were printed inside a heart on the dishtowel that hung on the refrigerator door handle. We got it made at Crystal Beach. It was a brave thing to do. But later we spilled loganberry juice on it, so we used it for dishes because we couldn’t bring ourselves to throw it out. And there were marigolds in amber glasses on the windowsill, daisies in a green cut-glass vase on the kitchen table, fresh mint and basil growing in a flower box on the porch. It was a home. I grew up in leaps and bounds. I learned to reduce the anxieties of life by paying bills on time, keeping receipts and promises, doing laundry before I ran out of underwear, picking up after myself. Most importantly, I learned to say I’m sorry. This relationship was too vital to let dust accumulate in its corners.”

— Leslie Feinberg, Stone Butch Blues

wow, it's the first Wednesday of my unemployed life. corporate burnout sounds silly. but i seriously feel strange without a corporate job. i feel this impending need to stay productive. my therapist and wife remind me this is a recovery period.

even so, i have enjoyed getting back into creative projects. my personal website is coming along. there is so much more that comes from launching a blog than i realized. email lists is my current headache. oh, and also the background color not matching on mobile...

how do i get this email to work? at least my initial page is up!

I am happy with my choices.

other things i am enjoying:

walking without feeling the urge to get back inside and check my work email

just watching my dog and how she navigates the world (a shame i hadn't paid more attention to it before)

moving my body more

not rushing during lunch

eating three meals a day

and not spending 8+ hours stuck at a desk

restarting the artist's way

so grateful and privileged to even be in a position where I can quit my job and take time to focus on my mental health.
