Early afternoon on the beach

The tide was WAY out, so we had a tidal pool and sandbar complete with a lot of gulls.  Nice, not quite warm enough to be beach weather, better IMO because that keeps the people away.  I like my beach empty.

Happy tax day!

End of crazy season.  Had a nice day, no stress, nice relaxed lunch, and we were done by 3.00.  Came home and filed my last couple of clients, and done.  No, I was not in the NY office today.  They're probably still there now, screaming and yelling at each other.

Stuff in the yard is finally starting to show green growth.  May even have some tulips and such coming out in a week or so, if it stays warm.  The prickly pear cacti are beginning to perk up.  There are buds on the lilac and Montauk daisies, and the roses are sprouting.  Spring will get here later rather than sooner, but it will get here eventually.  I hope we don't fast forward directly to summer, like we sometimes do. 

My forsythia is about dead, tho.  It has about five tiny yellow buds, and nada mas.  I'll have to dig it up carefully, my crystal is under it somewhere.  It's the wealth and prosperity corner that doesn't exist in this house.  Neither does the love and marriage corner, come to think of it.  Interesting how accurate fung shui can seem at times.  The forsythia didn't make it (it's been struggling for years), but the wealth and prosperity have been almost adequate until recently.  The love thing has never quite worked out in a traditional way.  Then again, that crystal didn't actually get buried until after Sandy made the corner accessible.  Oh well. 

Next house needs a better bagua map.  Gotta refresh my knowledge of the subject before I go shopping again.

I've been very close several times this week....

No, not close to ditching everything and running away, tho that thought has crossed my mind.  Close to writing something.  Then getting distracted or interrupted or not having something to write on or with, or running out of battery on the tablet...whatever.  It didn't get written.

So instead, here's a visual that kind of embodies my general state of mind.  I swiped it from someone's post on Facebook.  A lot of the time the stuff on there irritates me, pisses me off, or bores me to tears.  Once in a while something there really resonates with me.  This one resonates.
