I like the time of morning when the tops of the trees are lit by the sun, but the bottoms of the trees are still in shadow.

Ashley’s place on the sofa is also her place in the sun. #dogsofmastodon 🐕

The dog seemed happy to laze about for an extra half hour this morning, so I wasn’t out in time to see the dawn, but I got this nice view just after sunrise.

For a few weeks near the solstice, you can see the sun rise between the buildings east and south from my house.
You can see the sun, but don’t look at the sun.
The best light-therapy light for SAD
My whole adult life I’ve suffered from SAD (seasonal affective disorder). Years ago I got a light-therapy light, and found that I used it quite reflexively: It would pretty much stay off all summer and early fall, then one day in mid-October or so I’d turn it on without even thinking about it. Only later would I realize, “Oh, yeah. I needed that.”
This year I didn’t have the urge to turn the light on until yesterday, which is several weeks later than typical in recent years.
This morning, while out walking the dog, I realized why it was so much later: I’m out walking the dog close to sunrise nearly ever day.
And, as everyone knows (if they think about it), the best light-therapy light is the sun.
Highly recommended: Get outdoors while the sun is still low in the sky. Get yourself some light, along with some vitamin N (nature), and some outdorphins.,\

I slept so late this morning, the sun was already up when I got out to walk the dog!
Sharing more stuff on LinkedIn
In 2007, when I left Motorola, I was kind of reserving LinkedIn as a potential job-hunting site. In my brain I was already retired, but I hadn’t completely abandoned the possibility I might want another job, so I kept most of my random silliness off LinkedIn, just in case.
That hasn’t made any sense for at least a decade, but it has taken until now for me to get organized to fix it.
If you don’t want to read about my writing, sword fighting, dog walking, random sunrise photos, etc., feel free to use whatever tools LinkedIn provides to filter such stuff, or just stop following me. I’ll take no offense.

The sun rises behind the buildings east of where I live this time of year, so I need to walk all the way to First Street if I want to see the sun on the horizon.
