Lots of things are going on at homes on both sides of the Pacific Ocean. There’s no use to think about the uncontrollable, but they are on my mind nonetheless. One day at a time. I told myself. One day at a time..

In This Ever-changing World
In This Ever-changing World It’s a Friday that doesn’t feel like a Friday. The Whole Foods in downtown Santa Fe was a lot less crowded than usual. The moody weather seems to threaten a change of atmosphere. Next Tuesday will be Election Day. The world will go on no matter the outcome, and that’s just the way it is..

Back Home Safe and Sound
Back Home Safe and Sound Today we concluded our 2026 road trip. We don’t do it every year. This is only the second time we went on a road trip in the U.S. At this particular moment, I’m not sure if we would ever do it again. We certainly enjoyed every second we spent with our friends, but the driving, the traffic and people’s reckless behavior dampened the whole experience..
While I’m composing today’s One Photo A Day, a extremely loud thunder almost startled me. It’s not a total shock since I had been anticipating that when I captured today’s image.

Another Sort of Mundane Sunday
Another Sort of Mundane Sunday Today we pretty much did everything we usually do on a typical Sunday. One thing out of routine was that we spent about half an hour looking through a few of the containers in the garage. I came across a black leather jacket which I wore to the SVA Mentor Show opening reception more than 20 years ago. Upon realizing that was the last time I ever used it, it went straight to the box for donation.
Our decluttering mission continues..

Walking Under The Blue Autumn Sky
Walking Under The Blue Autumn Sky Usually my companion goes out to walk by himself. Once in a while he will ask me if I want to come along. So we went for a walk together this afternoon. His posture is better now; it must have been the result of the weekly physical therapy. Today the weather was beautiful. Chamisa was blooming everywhere. That’s the Santa Fe in Autumn I fell in love with before we moved here..

Just Another October Evening
Just Another October Evening We spent a good portion of the day going through the stuff we accumulated over the years. How did this all happen?
While I was making curry for dinner, I looked out the French window and realized I forgot to finish setting up the solar-powered lights again today. Add to the to-do list for tomorrow..

Ever Changing Reality
Ever Changing Reality Life is constantly evolving. Ever since my companion and I came to an understanding about our future, I’ve been doing things differently little by little. I’ve also started to let go of things – material things that wouldn’t matter when the day comes. It’s quite exhilarating as a matter of fact, to get rid of belongings that aren’t essentially necessary.

A Sliver of Hope
A Sliver of Hope The flood watch warning seemed to have passed and we ventured out to do some necessary shopping earlier. On our way back the sky was still covered with heavy, threatening dark clouds. But there were slivers of blue sky.
All darkness will pass. A sliver of hope will only be the beginning.
