So many things are just terrible right now, but this morning my 13-year-old pup did five zoomies around the house, under and over furniture, racing through doorways, low to the ground, full speed ahead. Absolute joy. It doesn’t get much better than that.

One thing I'm focusing on during this period of chaos is creating. I'm editing a novel, rehearsing choral music & started a ceramics class a month ago. Creating is one form of my resistance. Here's one of my first pieces, just out of the kiln. The other pieces need to be glazed and fired. 1/2

I think it’s critical to be grateful for all that is good and sacred, maybe especially during challenging times. A morning spent at the Ventura Harbor with my daughter and grand pup was just what the doctor ordered.
