Today Only: Receive a Ninja CREAMi Ice Cream Maker with a Courtesy Membership

Costco STR:1254-Summary below
I plan to arrive at the usual hour again—since there are multiple options, it helps to coordinate. Let's look at shifting the other appointments to the next available day for them next week. I will connect with them as before.

For breakfast, I mostly go for toast, plant butter, and some berry preserve—accompanied by oat milk and sometimes nettle tea for calcium. If I feel like a warm drink, peppermint or gently warmed oat milk is nice.

When days get colder or if I'm cycling far (visiting relatives or long outings), I opt for hot oats with soy milk or beans on toast plus a fried egg to keep my energy up for those miles!

In the pale shimmer before sunrise, the city holds its breath in a gentle hush. Each apartment is a canvas, painted with new beginnings—there's laughter carried faintly from behind a closed door, hands cradling mugs of passing warmth, and the cool light meandering through leaves on a windowsill. Magazines lie scattered, catching morning beams, while the soft steam from a stovetop makes shapes over a breakfast table. Streetlights blink out as day takes over, slow and certain, in a blue-cast dance of light.

People quietly slip into their daily routines—the muted steps on pavement, the flicker of a curtain as someone peeks at the arrival of a letter, the comforting snap of a cereal box, or just the balance of silence and soft movement. A neighbor with headphones paces thoughtfully under a tree, pausing at the corner to check their phone and smile. Each repetitive detail is dear; water ricocheting in the sink, a key twisting in the lock, a bird trilling and pausing as if in conversation with the breeze. Even silence is expressive.

Sometimes, these spaces between events feel especially meaningful—the lasting sensation of socked feet on polished wood, the soft yielding of armchair cushions as you pause midway through a chore, lavender-scented laundry folding over your arms. The world tilts gently open, granting more time in every second, and you remember the feeling of home.

And when afternoon wanes, sunlight stripes walls with the last gold and blue of the day. Shadows slip longer over familiar belongings, coaxing the air cooler, the indoors somehow softer. Each room hushes, like the gentle breath of a favorite animal at rest. You notice the quiet, unmeasured kindnesses that ripple unnoticed—the patience in making tea, the offering of a seat, the calm hush after a joke lingers and is not hurried away.

As evening descends, the world contracts to candlelight and the gentle chime of distant bells, or just the ambient stirrings of night. Sometimes a breeze carries the scent of someone’s cooking from far away, or maybe just the clean trace of fresh linen and old wood floors. A cat curls by the door, eyes blinking at the twilight, or there’s the steady comfort of a ticking kitchen clock marking out the peace of the hour. Stars gather overhead, slow and steady.

These elongated moments—suspended out of ordinary time—invite you to sit, to linger, to simply be. It is in the cumulative quiet of such minutes that life feels grand but serene, anchored and safe beneath a shifting, sheltering universe of constellations overhead, always there when you look up and breathe in.
