Hot Weather has arrived
Today is a productive day in my city. I woke up to a slit of sunlight sneaking through the crack in my window. Being this my almost day off( I picked up a new lesson today) I usually do my grocery shopping today. I ventured out of my door around 8am and walked around the corner to my Sardo green grocer. He told me that he has a house to rent in his town in Sardegna. Wish I could rent it, I thought. I bought a whole bunch of yummy veggies and then I was off to the store down the street. I am so grateful to have everything so close to my house.
After than I rode my pretty new bike to the center to run some errands. I went to the bank and talked to my favorite bank lady, Adele. She is so helpful and just a doll. Then I went to meet a dear friend for breakfast. It was a great chat and enjoyed the company. These days I have been going through the transition of feeling lonely. I really want to buy a cat so I have someone to be happy to see me when I come home. As much as I love being on my own, I do miss the togetherness of family and a significant other. I have been reaching out to friends a lot. Just wanting a hug, is all that I ask for sometimes.
The hot weather has arrived and so my window shutters are always shut now not letting light in. Which is sad because the light coming from my garden gives me energy. The humidity on the other hand, I am not a fan of. Even at around 6pm until the sun sets the humidity still lingers in the air. Today I enjoyed meeting with a good friend as the sun was setting for a gelato. I forgot how fun it is just to listen to a friend. I have been talking so much lately and I think I forgot how to listen. It is nice to have friends I can meet with and just enjoy the evening. Strolling along the cobblestones of my city, where I always wanted to be. Challenges come and go but my love for this city still remains. Heat or no heat.
Every day is a challenge that I so much enjoy to conquer. I'm content that every night I go to sleep, I am sleeping in the place I have always dreamed and thus I must not dwell on the things that don't go my way. But just go with the flow.
Expect nothing and accept everything and you will never be disappointed.
