Nothing Too Fancy

Trying to come up with something pithy and relevant, interesting and amusing, but it’s not happening.

I have been trying to work on the iris a little at a time, and making good progress. There seems to be a lot of other things going on, too, and I am wearing out at the end of the day. Tuesday I went to bed before 10PM. I am such an old person.

I met a good friend for lunch today. We try to meet once a month, but summer schedules prevented such since April or May. It was good to catch up with each other lives, and at the end of the meal, my fortune cookie read, “Your life will be peaceful and fulfilling.”

I’ll take that.

This is a time in my life where I can find peace and fulfillment regardless of what is going on around me. That doesn’t mean I don’t feel a bit upended at times, because I am going to. I am human. But I come back to this idea. How would I act today if I knew that everything is working out exactly the way it needs to? How would I act today if I knew that everything was going to turn out perfectly?

Because it is.

Does going to bed before 10 make us old? OMG!!! What do afternoon naps make us? I take a nap in between classes...That may make me absolutely ANCIENT!

Make those alpaca socks! You'll LOVE them!

I'm with you. I'm amazed at how much more intelligent and together I am compared to even two years ago. Peace is all around, as long as you try to find it.

  • Welcome...

    ...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.
