How was your weekend?
I've been preoccupied by a lot of serious illness among my friends and family, and my own relatively minor complaints. We're not getting any younger, and it's showing.
In other news
Last night I closed my bedroom door so the cat couldn't get in, and for a change I slept straight through til almost 7 am! Maybe my early waking problem is as simple as the damn cat prowling around and waking me up. I am a light sleeper and she knows it. Sometimes I wake to find a floofy tail brushing my face. I'll try closing the door again tonight.
I like this poem a lot, that a friend (not the poet) sent today.
Blessings
occur.
Some days I find myself
putting my foot in
the same stream twice;
leading a horse to water
and making him drink.
I have a clue.
I can see the forest
for the trees.
All around me people
are making silk purses
out of sows' ears,
getting blood from turnips,
building Rome in a day.
There's a business
like show business.
There's something new
under the sun.
Some days misery
no longer loves company;
it puts itself out of its.
There's rest for the weary.
There's turning back.
There are guarantees.
I can be serious.
I can mean that.
You can quite
put your finger on it.
Some days I know
I am long for this world.
I can go home again.
And when I go
I can
take it with me.
