Day Fifty-Two, Wacky Wednesday Night

I took a sudafed because my allergies are so bad and now my nose is still stuffy, my eyes are still itchy, and I can barely stay awake. So it will be a turbo entry. I really can't think straight so I will transcribe some things I found on my phone tonight and then, bed, sweet bedtime!

I have drifted away and find myself
again
on the edge of  a universe all my own
looking back at all the celestial dwellers in a cluster
crying starry tears
that float away
and become a universe of their own

An unfortunate choosing has landed us at a beautiful hotel in London. A lovely, albeit tiny, room, clean, well appointed and breakfast included. I can't help but feel romantic stirrings in my heart as we are pampered by an attentive staff. The hotel is magnificent, oak panelling, velvet wallpaper, curlicues on the ceiling and crystal chandeliers.

The children, true to their ages, sit in their room fighting over chargers and adapters for their electronics while all around them is atmosphere I never even imagined at those years.

I know part of the magic of this is that I am free, momentarily, of the constraints of everyday life, but it feels so beautiful and natural being here. So much has come before and so many live here on top of all that history. rushing by it, numb to it's existence. The tourists keep the wonder alive, gaping with wide eyes at all that is London, architecture, art, history. All these things that make this unique experience. I am part of it too, with my foolish wide eyed enthusiasm. How lucky I am to be a part.

Chosen for no particular reason, there is something written for tonight, now I can hardly see, goodnight!

This horrible hotel

led us here, which was magical.
