We had rain overnight, gentle drizzle. It's so odd to have rain here when it's warm enough to comfortably have the windows open.

I'm back to trying to figure out when i should be in the office and when not. I had someone skype me moments ago asking if i could be in a 9 am meeting tomorrow, which is when i can drive to the office. It took us a back and forth to realize it's a 9 am Eastern meeting, 6 am my time. I still am blocked to driving in at 9 then or missing my 8 and 8:30 am meetings. Meal eating and commute times seem to appear and disappear like gaps on those sliding block puzzles.

I suppose i should try and get an optometrist appointment today for next week before things go all slidy-block there.

I don't feel reflective, so i lift Plain Living: A Quaker Path to Simplicity off my desk shelf with a little prayer. The bookmark is at three queries:

Do i make time in my life to remember the divine purpose behind each of my tasks?
Do i seek to simplify my life by listening to guidance from an inward holy center?
What promotes and what hinders my search for inward simplicity?
