Fog on the lowest part of the land,
Sparkling sunshine on the rise.
A day to leave the city behind
with it's toxic air and people.
Detox the body,
enrich the mind.
Floating on the water,
feeling the suns rays.
You, crossing my mind
like a million dandelion seeds
blowing in the wind.
Turbulent/wild/all directions
I love you.
Can you feel it?g'

I miss having Shirlyn to go to dinner with.  She was good dinner company and we could be quiet together and it didn't feel awkward.  Yesterday I took a walk on the greenway with CA.  She asked if she could go and I told her that she talks too much.  I made a rule that she could talk on the way but on the way back was total silence.  She was quiet ( Read more... )

He said, "You're the kind of woman I could love forever."  She stood still, unresponsive, unable to say a word, afraid she'd say the wrong thing.  She didn't know what to do so she asked the mountain.  "Come walk my path", said the mountain, "you'll know the answer a quarter of the way up."  She took his hand, explained that she was confused, ( Read more... )

Too busy to clean house until I looked around and thought I might need a place to sit down soon and all the cushions are covered with unopened mail, boxes and some of the things Shirlyn left in my keeping.  I hope to fill the suitcase and be off to England in March.  I hope to keep the ivy alive and wonder how it would be to grow it up this wooden ( Read more... )

I cannot believe it's already September!  August was non-stop, September looks promising.  Russ and Otto were here today after I got back from the office for a few hours work.  It was good to have some muscle here to help me do a few things.  Steve 3 came by too and left me with some goodies and a surprise.  Brenda called while he was here, she ( Read more... )

What a week.  Greenville, Morristown, early a.m. slept most of the way.  He said I snore like a freigt train then he laughed so I'm not sure if I'm a train or not. I loved the company, loved meeting my Greeneville counterpart and certainly loved looking at Ceasar.  Looking is what I do best ( Read more... )

There is a leak under the sink that caused the cast iron cookware to rust in places.  The smaller pieces were cleaned and placed back under the sink, the leak has not been found.  I'm not worried, I have a book: Plumbing for Dummies that will teach me what I need to know.  There is now a pile of old rusted cooking pans that I will never use again, ( Read more... )

If I don't want to be found, I can't be found.  Isn't that the way of most people?  I'm trying to get through some things slowly and under my own volition, can't help it, that's the way I'm wired.  Michelle put the lawn mower in her back seat (!) and came over here while I was at work to cut the grass.  She could only get to the front, the gates to ( Read more... )

Surgery successful, still tender, still moving slower than I like ( Read more... )

You read about my fear, you settled my nerves, soothed my feelings, you who are bigger than you realize.  One day I'll tell you how much you mean but for now I can only show you with the pie, the gulash, the biscuits.  Until I can trust, it's best I keep it to myself.  I have every reason to believe that Tuesday's "issue" will come and go, few days ( Read more... )
