Finally made it to the shower. And then the tide turned. It felt so good to be clean. It was a baptism from the funk. It was all okay when I got out. The phone rang and it was a neighbor. Granted she was asking if I had heard about a neighborhood break-in. But it was human contact. Then Daughter called. More contact. Plus Daughter makes me laugh more than anyone in the wide world. The earth righted itself and I felt evened out again. Oh. And then I looked out my kitchen window and saw a patch of daffodils blooming. A girl just can not stay all bluesy with daffodils in her back yard. Its true.
I did this one yesterday.
You can scroll to an older post to compare this second attempt with the fist. I am pleased with both. Sorry this photo is a little fuzzy.
Right inside our garage door- in the kitchen - is the refrigerator. I have started leaving messages for Mr. Macho on the dry erase board that my grandchildren love to draw on. Just for fun. I am trying to change it frequently but sometimes the message stays for several days. It has caught his attention, and I think he likes it.
My sisters are planning a girls at the beach weekend in February. The planning is getting fun and specific. There will be singing and movie watching and beach walking and karaoke and even a fiesta night - among other things. During the 1990's my family would get together at the beach every other year. Did I tell you my family is gi-normous? (That is whole 'nother episode.) At a very young age my children understood and declared that it wasn't an official family reunion unless we had the three essential elements - 1. singing 2. arguing 3. crying. It is good to have something to look forward to.
Peace out.
