This morning I woke up feeling October. More than that, all morning I've been feeling the exact date...October 22, 2019. Wandering around and watering, windows open, immersed in my beautiful reds; I decided to go out and get a few shots. It can be really different with the windows open.
I sat on the wall and shot my shots. It was fun because I had a light on in one of the windows.
It glowed.
I took another shot before I came in and it hit me, this is around the time that Dali, Sammie Cat and I were returning to the states in 2012. It felt like the exact day for some reason.
Maybe it was that bottom photo that shook the memory banks, but I had to come in and see if I could figure it out. It didn't take much. These are those moments when I'm so grateful that I didn't surrender my scorched journals to the fire.
There it was:
October 21,2012 and we head back to the states for a longer time tomorrow morning...so much swirling, but we're getting there. I'm trying to look at it all as an adventure...
My next entry was from the Motel 6 in Chattanooga Tennessee with Dali and Sam on October 23, 2012. Motel 6s are "pet friendly" AND they "left the light on" for us.
You should be able to see the blending of 2012 and 2019 here. The top and bottom shots for this post portray the morning of 10/22/2012 when Evelyn was taking us to the airport in Toulouse. The bottom shot is this morning!
It's been a long, eventful, seven years!
Happy Tuesday!
