Walk, look, walk, smell, walk, feel

So the best part is I can WALK to the library here! (If and when I have an hour to spare). So great...warm air..and..LIZARDS to discover!!! I'm a sucker for finding lizards and frogs...had a long stare down with a lizard on a fence on the way here...asked him some questions but he just stared...sweetly. Stopped by the little man-made pond to watch the tiniest Lochness Monster dive and reappear. Some sort of small bird with only it's skinny curved neck sticking out of the water when it comes up. intriguing.;) And then a family of large cranes! mother, father and child...grey with red on the head...grazing and walking around not twenty feet from me.I watch for a while then walk on, staring at the Spanish moss hanging down from the trees...I love/miss walking...
Smells of pine needles and wet grass and pencil shavings(?) throw my senses for a loop and I am back in grade school walking home from the bus stop or outside for recess...
Tonight is New Year's Eve and my love is far :( but we will reunite soon..inshallah..I'm having such trouble sleeping without him. Feel like a child afraid of the dark! Seriously, I kept the bathroom light on last night. Mock me if you must.;)
