waiting for the storms to pass

i've been barraged by storms, literally and figuratively, for the past couple of months.

i am looking forward to taking a long break. a calm forced into the midst of the mayhem.

right now i am seeking solace in the kitchen. simmering chicken-pork adobo with olives. waiting in line is an invented thai chicken soup. i have finished marinating pork chops in olive oil, salt and pepper.

i wish jacob were here. but we all have to watch our homes in case this new storm proves as tricky as the last one.

i can feel my selves scattered all over and i need to gather them. i need to start reading a book, start writing something, start a project.

i need to regain the lost momentum of my life when work got truly destructive the past two weeks or so.
