The opening of Advent today. Officially the Christmas season according to the Church. And our Padre was right there with a great homily, To Live the Usual Unusually Well. OK, we can do that.

Yea, there is a broken sky here with the sun coming and going. It’s chilly and we are going through firewood at a pretty good clip. Comes with the season. So we will hunker down as usual. Oh, there’s that word again.

Catherine and I did our weekly tailgate session after Mass. We were talking poetry and that attracted attention. Like people listening for stock market tips. Maybe that is a sign of changing times. Or maybe that is just usual for unusual Vashon Island.

Just have another minute to be with you. But I had an image just there of hanging Christmas lights around in my mind. Let me see if I can color my doings with the addition of that cheerful ambience. Mind ambience, decorating the mind.

Alperfect today loves, Felipé.
