Bright Sunshine-y Day

A week of missteps, misguidance and missed opportunities--mostly of my own doing, in one way or another, or many--has left me feeling a little less than primed to enjoy the sun-drenched heat wave that is washing over the Midwest right now... I'm looking forward to enjoying the company of a visitor from afar, soon, but today I just feel lost and lonesome, off-track and out of time, left behind and less than loved, and very much missing something quite dear and once familiar to me that I guess I can only describe as home... Ah, but it's a beautiful day, why not enjoy it??
