Special Day

Healing continues.
So does unpacking.
Collected the mail.
Paid bills.
Mundane life goes on.

But today is special
and so we remembered
how after getting a license
with the intention of having Nelson
perform a ceremony during
Mountains & Rivers in April
we sat at a little cafe
sharing a grilled cheese sandwich
and smiled at each other and said
"We could save our friends a lot of trouble"
paid the bill, walked back around the corner
into City Hall in Oakland and all the clerks
gathered around and they loved it and
we loved it too.  Informal and spur of the moment
I don't even remember what I was wearing.
Perfect.

Still perfect all these years later.

Right now, every day feels pretty special.
Today ... a little bit more.
