I hear ya, James. A few weeks ago, during my daily jog on these same streets, I ended up right smack in the middle of this Googly chaos when I obliviously turned down a street where they were working. I quickly turned to high-tail it outa there when the man holding a stop sign started shouting and waving "come on through, well come on!" He was smiling so exuberantly that I immediately followed his orders! I jogged through a whole block of those ear-drum-bursting pavement pounders without falling into one single hole. As I glanced back over my shoulder, ears ringing, the friendly guy was giving me a thumbs up so I waved back and thought, man, does this guy ever have a great work ethic.
Faced with mounting digital connectivity issues today, I pushed my glowing rectangle aside and drifted out to the backyard to survey my seemingly evergreen container gardens. Winter has been kind so far, this pandemic year.
Giving thanks for the physical, a simple act of watering some drooping pansies was restorative. I get you, my friend.
