Christmas continues with us for a few hours. Then we transition from the sacred to the celebration of time!
New Years Eve and New Year's Day are days where we adjust. Out with the outdated calendar and in with plans (hoped for plans).
We are gifted with a finite number of years and months. Weeks, days, hours and minutes remain countable. Seconds of life need scientific notation. 3 x 10 to the eighth. Some readers enjoy running the numbers as above.

A muse. My seldom here but at times muse.
In 2014 in Omaha, Nebraska Ms. Adair gave brief comments about the creative process. Omaha has a summer writing camp and Ms. Adair brought her dancers to this session.
In her comments she related times when her muse rushed in and forced her to create whether in dance or writing or photography.
Full disclosure, two of the dancers were then younger granddaughters. In the last four years each girl has advanced. Very graceful back walk overs ten days ago in front of her widely cheering school mates ( the younger now near fifteen years old). And a twenty year old in her second year of college level dance. Chorography. Years ago I knew the word but now I see beauty in dance created by each granddaughter.
For each, their dancing muse shows up more often than my writing muse.

Status - We started over visiting fifty states.
Check back please to our August 2015 comments.
Back then, we set foot in the last state of fifty states to visit. Immediately we started over sleeping in and eating in Idaho, Oregon, California and Washington.
By early September, 2015, we had collected the first four of fifty states. Now in 2018 we have collected Kansas, the twenty seventh state since 2015.
Twenty three states to go.

Another all day rain.
My daily walk clears my mind. I said I will walk at 2 or 3 but soon darkness arrived. The rain continued on and on.
