I am Starved

Happy Thanksgiving Day, even though that was not a happy day for the Native Americans. I don't think there was peace or a piece shared.

We celebrate being thankful, and that should be an everyday motto, but here we are.

Cooking and eating, like we are headed to the electric chair!! The smells of Thanksgiving, are wonderful, so whom ever made up the holiday, I thank some part of you.

I have two things going in the oven, as I type, and that is not a good thing. I have two timers set, and the beloved is asking me about Zoom!!! Multi task like you raised five children, Bonnie. ( Now I'm talking to myself via the keys on the keyboard!) ( Do they have zoom shrinks? if needed??)

Last week, or not I saw something on TV about The Royal Ballet in London, putting on a ballet show. A one night gig, but they did it, and I was starving!!! I tape everything, just in case of these moments, I needed to watch this, thing of beauty, several times over. I called the doctor hubs in, come watch this with me, as I held my hand to my heart. Look at those point shoes, the leotards, the tulle, the fingers, the hand on her back, the legs, OH MY GOD!!!I am starving for the ballet!! The Opera, A concert, A play on Broadway or Atlanta!!!! I need art in many forms, and not for a snippet of time!! I need The Nutcracker, followed by Hamilton (original cast). I watched some of the turkey day parade on the telly this morn and I got HIGH!!! on people lip synching. (Going to go check the stove, hope this is still here when I get back) OK, needs five more minutes!!

When I was beginning to cook Thanksgiving yesterday, the smells in my house were delish, I was starving for warm, comfort, turkey food smells!!

I need to sit in a pew, at church, and hear the organ.( maybe the message also)

I miss friends, family and ordinary life.

BUT as I remind my brother on a daily basis, Adaptation!!

We learn to look at the broader picture, adapt to the year in which is still going. 

Extend your stroke of the paintbrush!!

Be happy and grateful, and give without ceasing.

The sun is shinning, my mother is doing pretty good, all this food is a blessing, and talking to you or this day, is awesome.

Damn, Alexia just told me to take out the pumpkin pudding, DONE!! Now uncover the dressing, and look at the turkey, and four more sides to cook. They are ready, I just have to throw them in!! and our Thanksgiving is small, five adults and one angel child.

I will leave you with one of my brothers everyday language quotes!! While watching football a couple of weeks back, he said, " That is a lot of beef on the hoof!" I fell over, I replied, " Is that your way of saying this guy is kinda large!!!" We are starving for laughter, and love people, change your day, and some other persons day. For that I am Thankful, Another Day. ( Benjie would say, you forgot to say above ground!!) 

Love

B    ( any mistakes are left in on purpose) ( like a puzzle for you to fix on this glorious day) ( You are welcome) ( Think like a Monk)
