Far more flexible than you'd ever imagine. ( continued from blog title, Jodi Picoult, My Sister's Keeper)
Just this week in April, I put on makeup to listen to an opera singer online. During the mascara swipe, I laughed, talking to myself, "Bonnie he is blind!" I was sure he would know it was me listening, I wanted to look nice. My friend Perlotta let me know, that He Knew!!! Friends are the Gorilla Glue of life. Love my friends.
Also same week, I think???
Husband said, "Wizard of Oz is on TV?" ( knows I love the movie) I told him, I was good, did not feel like watching Dorothy, but I may have said, " That person singing sounds like Judy Garland!!"
People, this virus, is changing all of us.
Such suffering and horror, and together time!!!
What do they call it? Stay home time?
I love home, and my family but I need things!!!
I don't really need anything, ( that is not totally true!!)
Paul Simon is playing on Alexia right now, I need them both!!
I need a new President, period. ( Let the facts talk !) ( We may forgive you for voting for this human) ( but.....I will have to pray hard for forgiveness)
I need spring plants. I know my nursery, has curb pick up, but I like to touch plants, and commune with what is coming into my yard. ( I get the same ones!!) ( maybe I can do it online!) ( will they understand, my purple and yellow, design element!!) (YES, I may be high maintenance )( No I am not, I am very particular !!)
Each night before I go to sleep, my prayers are for all the people, you know, essential people, who are still working for us. So many angels among us, I pray they get paid for their hard, dangerous labor. Teachers, truck drivers, postal workers, nurses, doctors, all care workers, any and all, OH, Grocery delivery people . ( one at my door right now)
Corona Virus, has changed us, and I think for the better. I hope so.
It is a heavy burden on the human race, but we are known for adaptation.
A world full of suffering, heartache, and strong opinions, I am a Dreamer! John Lennon told me so.
I need the Beatles music !!
My mom is with us now, and has good days, and not so good. I remind her, that we all have those.
Life is what it is, and we all hang on. Some hang on the rope, and are very still. Some swing on the rope, and soar.
Shooting for the stars, seems right in my wheelhouse around this 2020 year.
Be safe, love each other, keep learning, and pray that my nail people come back!!( OK, maybe its not at the top of my list, but damn if its not pretty high!)
