Happy Sunshiny Wednesday.

The sun is shining! It may only be for a little while, since there’s still a storm out there - but, for now, it’s shining!!!

We went to go get coffee…that’s coming to an end soon, since we’ve ordered an espresso machine (to save money - budgets, you know…blah, blah, blah)…so we decided we will get coffee a few more times ’til it arrives. Of course, I got the largest size and didn’t really drink it on the trip home because it was so hot. Then, pulling into the driveway - the unthinkable happened - I know better than to pick up hot coffee by the lid, but I hadn’t had my caffeine yet so…Yep! I spilled the whole thing - GONE - and all over myself, Byron, and the car…did I mention it was HOT!!!

I cried - I did. I rarely really cry…but, I cried!

But, as horrendous as that was, the whole way home I had closed my eyes and let the sun shine right on my face. So, even minus my over-priced latte, I’m good. (Happy Me! )

Sunshine just changes everything…it makes the “horrendous” moments okay. It can make any day a happy, sunshiny day.

So, Happy Wednesday to you. And even if things go wrong (like your love affair with jacked-up java going terribly awry), I hope you get a little sunshine on your face and heart - it’s like a whispered hug - it can help make those times okay…

Have a “sunshiny” day! :-)
Peace out.

On the Road Again…

…so, we’re still in georgia - in a cool coffee shop (elements coffee co.).

we’ll get back on the road soon, but byron has a conference call…

i love visiting coffee shops around the country - you really get the vibe of the area…how people live, wherever you are.

we’ll probably make a run through wal-mart before we go…we need to get something new for the kids to watch…and for us to have to listen to while they watch…(after a while “the a team” and “dr. doolittle 2″ can begin to make you crazy…er!)

i’m thinking they would love to watch something british…or at least made by a&e - like maybe “sense and sensibility”…something beautiful like that. i think after all the hours i’ve spent listening to “shrek” and anything “star wars” related, i deserve to have some say in what’s played…just a thought!

i should go now - the boys are getting bored, so i need to find something they can do - it probably will involve nick.com. oh well, so much for trying to get them to pursue higher forms of literature…

peace out…

Happy Caffeine-Filled Wednesday!

Starbucks is taking over the world…

…but we’re too addicted to caffeine to notice!

Have a happy Wednesday…while you still can.

Peace.

Precariously Perched.

It’s Friday.

I’m at the church and my laptop won’t pick up the wireless signal, for some reason.  So I am tethered to the wall - I don’t know if I can live like this!!!!!

I miss my macbook.  It’s stormy outside, and I’m having to type on a PC.  It just doesn’t feel right.  It’s like the world is turned upside-down…well, maybe that’s an exaggeration.

I feel precariously perched on the edge of anxiety today.  I’m not sure why - I just woke up that way.

So, this probably needs to be a short blog, or I might say some crazy stuff…crazier than normal.  This probably means more poetry tonight.  I’m discovering this about myself:  A crazy day leads to a pensively poetic night…and a migraine (but that’s probably T.M.I.).

I think I just need more coffee, and maybe some cake.

If I could find a place where they have coffee, cake and wifi, I would be in hog-heaven.  Literally, because I really want cake.

I’ll blog more later when I come down off my perch…probably in iambic pentameter!
