Ponderings

So today Diann flops in my office chair a bit misty eyed, oh please don’t say you are quitting! She wasn’t, she only needed a bit of down time and a chat with someone other than her family.
We all have those days I’m sure, everyone tugging you in fifteen different directions can be overwhelming to a body. Doesn’t matter how old or healthy you may be, not having some alone time is disturbing. When I do have that time I cherish it, maybe that’s the key time to sit down and write out your feelings or listen to music – really loud or go watch a sunset. Hum, watching a good sunset sounds pretty nice to me; I haven’t seen one in weeks.
Its those small things in life that bring me back together, sunsets, misty meadows, waking to birds singing hell, waking period is pretty awesome. The misty meadow came to me this Sunday, I jumped out of bed around 4 am and sat out on my back patio, my grands pasture is connected to my back lot; the meadow there was so peaceful. Although there was one cricket chirping about that sporadically would get a little loud on me. PG hasn’t cut the hay so it was waist high with a slight mist floating above it as the sun rose. All I needed was some chick walking towards me in it with a plate full of hot breakfast. As I sat there day dreaming I noticed the grass moving as if some thing were walking in it, there was – it was Poochie. Who names their dog Poochie? My cousin does! Jeff and family are visiting the grands this weekend and I guess the mutt was out on a tour of the farm and made it down my way. Wet dog, yes, that’s another great part of life, that robust musty smell and the nice habit they have of shaking off right beside you, so much for going back to bed.
I did have a nice weekend, visited the café and ran about with friends. I also pulled in a round of golf. I plan on taking Jacks to the new driving range here this weekend. He loves to whack at the balls as much as I do without having to walk after them.
This new time schedule has me all messed up, today the day will fly by and tomorrow it will be an eternity. Thanks to all that visited the café and sent well wishes to me it’s much appreciated.
