pegkerrThe girls and I went to May Day today. I didn't take the camera along, so I have no pictures to show off, sorry. It's fortunate the parade and festival were held today; the weather was much MUCH better than yesterday.
*sits and tries to think of what to say about May Day* I dunno. I felt oddly detached this year. This has been quite a difficult spring, in ways I'm not really talking about much on my journal. Due to a variety of reasons, I haven't been posting much online, and I haven't been seeing my friends. And today, it sorta felt like all that came back in a way to roost.
Due to the fact that I suck and haven't been paying as close attention to LJ as I should, I missed the fact that the picnic group we've met with after the parade the past few years decided not to picnic this time--it really just didn't coalesce this year. That's the first time that's happened in, what, eight or nine years? And I really missed it. Plus I brought a whole tupperware container of deviled eggs and there was no one to eat them, and no one else in my family will touch them. We did run into![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dreamshark's family, at least, and it was lovely to see them, but still, a much less social experience than it has been in previous years.
The weather, at least, was lovely. But I was sort of stuck with the gear as the girls went off to explore, and, I dunno, I was lonely. It wasn't the same.
This has been such a hard spring.
The Sun came across the lake, at least. And the Tree arose from the banks to bless the city and the spring. Is it spring? It must be, although it has felt like a receding mirage for weeks (we last had snow two days ago!) May Day has come.
Heaven knows, I really need it.
