In and out …

Hmmm …

So many things to write about … so few of them actually
noteworthy …

To reconcile, a bulletin blog:

·        * 
I survived my first solo holidays.  Phew. 
So glad there’s only one set of firsts for those!

·        
*  The first minutes of the New Year were spent
finishing up a very sweet, very innocent, low stress … contra dance.  I would not have thought I would have liked
it either, but I have a dear friend whose family is very involved in this
community’s “friends of acoustic music” and they happen to provide the music for
it … o, yes, I have connections …

·        
*  During the holidays, my father ended up in the
hospital with a ruptured appendix, and then an internal infection, and then his
intestines quit working (sorry, Jorge, I realize that that explanation is
probably atrocious …)  He’s better now,
thankfully.

·        
*  Last weekend was spent with a very dear friend –
the friend who told me that Jesus was a Very Good Thing – and her family.  Last year was a tad on the melodramatic side
for both of us – divorces and miscarriages and such – it was good to reconnect
and to see ourselves coming out ok – just barely on The Other Side.  She has a darling two year old and a four
year old (also darling)… am I destined to love on other people’s children for
the rest of my life?  Huh.  Just curious. 
Dear Friend did say that she has a doctor friend that she’s wanted me to
marry … for the past eleven years.  I
told her that was a long time.  She
agreed.

·        
*  A very busy season at work with a few clients
who believe I’m the antichrist. 
Sometimes that happens during social work.  Wish I could say more.

·        
*  Now I will tell you something good about social
work, even though I am VERY tired out from the clients who obviously
MISTAKENLY  believe I am an agent of dark
forces.  I have a four year old on my
caseload who is just this most fantastic little man ever … who loves to sing …
while he goes to the loo.   Didn’t know
this before Thursday and while I won’t be including it any court report, I do
so think it’s adorable.

·        
*  I love the I Tunes store.  Love it. 
Especially with my eclectic, mushed up, doesn’t make any sense taste in
music.

·        * 
We’ve had a bunch of sticky weather lately with
hurricane force winds … and I keep hoping that something will destroy my
little, barely running car so I can get a teensy bit of insurance money, but no
luck yet.  I keep hoping.

·        
*  I live in a little, tiny vineyard town (I’ve
shared that before) that has just opened it’s 5^th Starbuck’s.  No kidding.

So, I do hope everybody’s New Year is off to a fantastic
start and I DO hope to get around   to everybody’s
places soon.
