And the Warm Winds have Arrived

I can't believe it was just the other day that the snow was falling and all was quiet and beautiful. But, today heralded the beginning of the warm weather that the rest of the world adores. It is ok. It will be over in six months. I started counting today.
Easter was never my favorite holiday. Crinlins and itchy clothes. At least that is in the past! If anyone catches me in a crinlin now - just shoot me!
The rabbits and squirrels were chasing each other like wild today so the cycle starts over. Here is to a better 2013. Cooler summer, kinder times, good stories and gentle breezes.

Learning to catch Lightning

I am alive & aged to where I consider myself in possession of a patina. It has been polished, by rising to challenges & meeting them head on. I have dents, scars & a crooked demeanor.
I am somewhat over educated for my daily requirements & undereducated for my queries.
I marvel at words & their texture.
I am a female in form but not so much in most of my actions or beliefs.
I believe that the meek inherit the crap & my life's motto is "Adapt, improvise, overcome and if all else fails - walk it off". Some days living my motto is my greatest challenge.
I make a home with my best friend & grand passion of 35 years and 1 dog, 2 cats, cabinets of curiosities & long saved plants. All of my kids have 4 legs and fur and animals are my favorite people. I talk to my compatriots and they respond - we do not have a language barrier. No, they are not human, they are evolved.
I have read voraciously.
I try to sin on a regular basis.
I love daily, although some might doubt it.
I have never been lost & I always know where the 4 corners of the earth are sitting - some days I just don't care.
I abhor inaccuracy, lack of logic & stupidity.
I have forgotten much - I have to assume it was not worth remembering.
I have never quit - but many times wondered why.
I embrace my dark side & I do not live my life believing that your fairy tale is a forgone conclusion.
I question most people's beliefs & reasoning & wish they would too. I believe everyone is weird - some are just more interesting than others.
I hug both trees and firearms.
I do not particularly care for summer - except for gardening. I do not like clear blue skies or heat. I embrace fog, rainy days & snow.
I love history, mystery, fantasy & questions.
I have few regrets - many secrets & am easily bored.
I have never seen a ghost but not for lack of trying.
I wish I had taken a more crooked path, flaunted in my youth, lived more wildly & been less careful.
I consistently start new things & am quite sad to see utter accomplishment as it marks the end to doing a thing. Once done well, there is nothing more to do.
I am a Lyme disease survivor and thought the wee beasties fought a hearty battle their days are numbered and I feel surrender in their cries.
I never start at the beginning but always stop at the end.
