Hot day! Winds are keeping it down a bit, but the temperatures are rising!

Awoke somewhat later than usual today. It was muggy last night and I don't think I slept that well, despite feeling pretty good in the evening. Felt heavy this morning, and slow.

Did morning rituals and came back and slept some more. L called and we met for a light lunch (I had a smoothie) and I returned to the hot box and my mono-diet. Hanging in until things begin to cool down some. Ate a makeup dish when I came back from having a smoothie--not sure if there was much in it other than sugar and ice. Ate 1/2 apple with yogurt, coconut oil and some chevre cheese--hearty makeup!

Reading Lynn's Year of Fire stories. Very eclectic--set in India, Ohio, near and far. A mix of themes with good characterization. Also reading my way into the Japanese author's "dream" stories or episodes. They make me antsy! I keep thinking, "I could have written this!" They are like dream reports. Oh, well! When I can think clearly, perhaps.

Unless I am reading, I have difficulty focusing, concentrating. Reading seems to work, but thinking doesn't. My mind is definitely a "monkey mind" and hops around until I read, eat or sleep. Speaking of eating, it's nearly time for the 5PM installment. Mango, blueberries and cheese, please! Dish it up!
