The Spirit is Willing, but…

I’m in trouble when WANT TO and NEED TO won’t match up with my energy level. It’s like a car with a dead battery… the engine just won’t go. That’s how I felt today. We managed to make a brief trip to the Farmer’s Market, and then to Fairhaven for African peanut soup at the Colophon. Even found a lovely Christmas wreath made from Oregon manzanita, to put on the front door. But the planned outing to the community tree lighting ceremony proved to be one thing too many. Jazz music on the radio and a fire in the fireplace won out over standing in a crowd on a rainy night. In truth, I was just too tired to leave the sofa. Later Bob drove me past the community tree, all ablaze in blue lights and topped with a golden star. We can even see it from our third story windows. Life is good.
