Living The Good Life

I have been busier than normal lately.

Could be that Spring was so rainy.

With a couple of nicer weeks,

I've been busy in the yard.

Not me exactly but the crew I hired.

For the first time, I gave up

 and hired someone

to do my yards.

It looks so nice now.

Also, my youngest graduates

from High School this week.

After that, I think that the

Summer will be relaxing.

No big plans at all.

I plan on dreaming

and living the good life.

While I pet those

sweet purr and fur balls,

of course.

Not real exciting but

it's so much in the plan.

Thoughts On Thursday

I've been calmer lately.

Which is so nice.

My soul was weary and tired.

I sometimes figure things out.

Others times I am in
worn out from my journey mode.

I am blessed to be where I am.

Joy of life and the sadness
 it sometimes brings.

It's all a path we walk.

Mine has been bumpy

and full of what ifs.

This week I've been quiet.

As if the turn I've made,

was the right one.

Where do I go from here ?

Always walking.

Turning that corner.

Looking at this or that.

Smelling those darn roses.

They are so nice

even with those thorns.

Hope you all enjoy

your long weekend.



Nothing but the truth

I wanted to write something witty.

Not happening.

I'll just tell the truth.

Which is what I usually do

and that is what has gotten me

in trouble most of my life.

That and my face.

I'm always told that my face

says something different and

shows emotions to others

that I don't really mean.

What am I to do ?

Be stone.

Anyway, on this rainy morning

I thought I'd say that

my life has been a turn and twist.

I'd just like things to go smooth.

Not happening.

I've survived a lot physically and emotionally.

I'm old.

I'm worn out.

I just want to take a long nap

like my cats do.

I will continue on.

I always do.

I will figure out what's best for me.

I usually do that too.

I just hope my face doesn't give me away.

Darn it all ...

if a gal can't hide behind her own

what can she do.

Drink perhaps ...

And these are my thoughts on another rainy morning.

Potential

I see potential in the skies

Clouds that mask the blue

Always drifting and giving hope

The warmth that might stay

The light that shines through

I am a believer

that one may find

their soul

hidden within

Chairs For Two

This is what I saw out of my patio door.
After driving hours through the Mountains,
to get to the end of my travels.
~~
This hotel is supposed to be fancy.
I just needed a relaxing last place
to settle while waiting for my plane.
~~
I did not get a view of the pool.
Which is nice I hear.
I got a view of the rocky hill.
A path that lead to a ball park view.
A mini table with bright chairs.
~~
I still remember sitting out there.
Thinking it was getting a bit chilly.
Now, I'm home
and have been living
 in the rain for weeks.
~~
I might have to go back
to visit a warm place.
~~
Maybe not that particular place
but at least one with two chairs
that sit in the warmth.
