First rocks and now laundry…. Do you get a sense I have been in need for the simpler things in life?
The morning here is slightly overcast. The sun and the ocean marine layer are fighting with each other for space in the sky. For now the marine layer wins out and the winds toss around a fine mist so gentle you wonder if it is mist at all.
Saturday morning laundry is one of the chores we did as children and it was one of my favorite ones. I simply love laundry. I love the idea of the dirty clothes going in and then coming out with that clean smell (all natural lavender and rosemary soap of course). The aromatic smell of clean clothes awe…….
Today, just like when I was a child I get to hang my laundry outside. Back then, way back then I used to wait in anticipation for the washer to finish anxious to get the clothes on line. Today was that day, the one that took me back to those moments.
Try to imagine a breeze blowing off the ocean the shorebirds and seagulls calling out to one another, the winds rustling through the trees and me hanging sweet smelling laundry just like my mom taught me
I took my time hanging everything just right so that it would dry with that crisp outside feeling, wishing that I had more to wash, more to hang and more moments like this in my life.
I think if there is a heaven this moment, this feeling must be part of it,
Thank you for reading and being part of my journey
