OH Dear!!

It probably is safe to walk on but I wouldn't want to walk on a glass bridge showing me a huge drop.  I'd be dizzy just thinking about it.   I'm a whoosh.  Heights scare me.    Drops even more as there is nothing that tells me that glass couldn't break.   I don't care if it is plexi-glass or not, I am not walking over it.  YOU GO!!!!

Well my day started off with a dropped egg on the floor, paper towel roll empty, bacon smoking but the alarm didn't go off so I guess I am safe for the moment.  Seems like it is going to be one of 'those' days.   It is Thursday , the first week of April gone and the weather has been beautiful, a bit cold but clear and that is suppose to change today...um....wonder what is going on , well the pictures wouldn't come up and the ones that should turned up empty. . . did I say it is going to be one of those days...well it is  and I might just go back to bed with a book and stay there.

 

As for yesterday, hump day, it was quiet here at Ridgemont.    I had a good read with Vinnie and we are now over half way through this book.   He is already thinking of what book he would like to have read to him next.    This one will probably take until Christmas as either one of us is off a day here and there.    I had a surprise visitor yesterday, Dale, the gentle man who used to help one of the elderly ladies across the hall from me before she passed on.    He is one who is involved in the building of houses for the homeless right now.   It is always nice to see him and catch up on what he is doing.   He did say he had a short stay in the hospital because of heart problems.   He has a new stint so is doing fine.   A good man, a gentle soul and well in demand as the ladies lined up waiting for him to stop and say hello.   It will be interesting to see who knocks on the door today;  hopefully a tea party later but early today I am going off to do a bit of shopping.   I may find some special cookies now that Doris has taken leave from her cookie baking.    She is busy making plans for her 100th birthday , almost a year away, but her daughter wants to line up the plans and be ready to celebrate . . .imagine one hundred. . . that is a lot of living.

So today, get on with living and do something you want to do.    Think family and see what you can do to plan a reunion this summer and get 'the gang' together one more time.    Maybe 'a fence or two' needs mending;   maybe it has been too long between visits;  maybe  just maybe 'they' want to be with you and are afraid to say so.    Life is short;   time flies like nothing else and you don't want to wake up one morning to find it is to late to hug that someone you miss and love.    Someone has to take a first step, why not YOU???  It is easy, place one foot before the other and go for it.  Put a little forgiveness in your satchel and open up those arms.    Be good, be kind, be gentle and lead on to a better and brighter future for all.  Be gracious and lead the way.   Hugs to all.
