TwoThoughts for the Day till Later...

Another day...

Two thoughts. One came from a lovely, helpful lady I spoke with on the phone yesterday who is now aware of my soap opera life. In trying to negotiate a difficult and trying situation, I was cracking jokes, because, well, humor is therapy.

Her reply? Thought number one: "It is better to crack a smile than to crack up."
How true.

Then I decided to bake some chocolate chip cookies this morning. I must say, when I am on (don't get distracted and let the cookies burn, for example) I have mastered the chocolate chip cookie. I will explain why later, but told my mom who just couldn't understand why on earth I was baking cookies on top of it all, I simply replied,

"there is a method to my madness." To which she replied "there is a madness to her method." Both true!

Peace on your journey.

Have a Great Day!

I am having more techie woes. I wanted to respond (very briefly...no that is not oxymoronic for me, it really is possible...) to a couple of posts, but now my computer won't let me click on "comments".

So I will wish you a great day here. Nicole just got out of the shower...(it may take three or four to get all the color out of her hair from her "do" last night...and omigosh...the pillowcase full of candy...I took a picture, but then again, can't load it because of other computer problems...)

I am enjoying, actually savoring, a strong, hot cup of coffee, will jump in the shower myself, load up the car and be off. The drive to Ithaca is beautiful, as long as you don't get stuck behind a log truck. I am looking forward to today. Matt is in a great space right now, and more importantly, so am I. I can love him, applaud him and support him for who he is, a guy full of passion finding his way.

The view out my kitchen window is serene. There are mountains off in the background and a pink glow from the morning sun before fading into the last of the night sky. It fills me with a sense of beauty, awe and hope...may you experience those things today.

God be with you.
