This and that
It’s been a hell of a last few days – weeks actually. Work’s been busy as all get-up, but I don’t mean that as a bad thing. It’s just that busy is busy and you know how that goes. I’m so beat and tired when I get home and there’s so much to do that it’s inevitable that things fall by the wayside. I hate when things fall by the wayside!
And I’m so sick of winter already. As the years go by I continue to wonder why I’m still here. I hate Minnesota when it’s cold, which is practically nine months out of the year. And I’m sick of the dark grey and gloomy skies that loom overhead and feel like they’re going to just drop at any given moment. I yearn for the soft blue, fluffy clouds that move slowly across the horizon, providing mere seconds breaks from the hot sun that warms you all over and feels so good upon your face. Closing my eyes, I can almost – almost, but not quite – feel it as though it were.
Today is Cookie’s birthday. Happy birthday sweet sister. I miss you as much as I ever have. I wish you were here.
