I got incredibly bad medical news about a friend yesterday and I'm still reeling from it.
When I went out to do barn chores this morning, it was foggy but I could still see the stars directly overhead this morning if I looked up and focused. That's kind of what my brain feels like, waiting for more bad news on so many scales...
But the moon was GORGEOUS (especially through binoculars), with Jupiter and Mars hanging out right next door. The goats are healthy, I have lots of chickens who will start laying eggs very soon, I have lots of stored veggies for the winter, my family is doing well, and I generally love my job. There's lots to be grateful for.
That's focusing on the stars through the fog. I need to do that more.
