6:30pm, Brentwood Avenue and Federal Street, Baltimore, MD

The end of a long week. I made it through. Today's site is close to one of my jobs. I am creating pressure for myself to find new neighborhoods but also my time is less free. My movements are slow and deliberate. The grass is wet from recent rains. The sensation of moisture gives me the feeling of cooling down. This is the wind down time. There is much to be done this weekend but I will also embrace rest. Hidden wild strawberries peek up at me from their nest. Sometimes before I dance, I take a few breaths to calibrate and leave space for my body and soul to tell me what they want. Today, I want rest and nourishment. I think that is exactly what I gave myself through my movement. Day two hundred forty-one.
