As a means of improving the sustainability of both my sitting and my writing, I've decided to let go of my commitment to sitting and blogging every night this month. Instead, I'm going to sit as often as I reasonably can (probably about 4 or 5 times a week), and write about twice a week. This change is intended to make it feasible for me to keep on with it all even after this month is up. Sitting and writing every night has been hard on the rest of my life, as I typically like to devote about an hour and a half to it a night, which doesn't leave time for much else.
6:30 pm
Overcast skies, bright, drizzling. About 60 degrees, no mosquitoes or crickets yet tonight.
Robins, a couple of birds I didn't recognize.
Took my sit in the yard tonight to try and locate one of several gray treefrogs who have either moved into our area or simply become vocal in our area. I finally was able to identify them today, thanks to Charlie sharing the great frog call website! These tree frogs are the "ree...ree..." frogs I've been hearing across the fields for a couple of weeks now.
I located one under our old deck in the yard (waiting to be cut up into firewood), one about a 30-second walk away in the woods, and three more spread out in neighbors' yards, all about equidistant from one another. I love listening to their calls, now that I know who they are and what they look like!
