Friday Fill In

{tribute to 200 years- Dickens}

And...here we go!

1. When it comes time to make a decision, I don't want to (I want a period of time I don't have to).
2. Unfortunately that must be the rule.
3. Ma says,if you make a face like that it might stick.

5. I never saw ANYTHING.
6. Lightbulbs- not a new invention.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to my roasted chicken, tomorrow my plans include maybe driving around and Sunday, I want to eat a doughnut!

 I have seen this little tree from about 1992 to 2011..off and on. It's on Hwy 160 just east of La Veta Pass in Colorado.  No other tree. Always wondered how old it was. I pondered if it enjoyed it's life alone. The passing of the seasons it has seen...the sun rises....the sunsets. Maybe a lone animal sat in it's shade at times- Just that in itself would make it all worth it.  
I privately ponder a lot lately. It hit me hard....while I was bus driving, I would experience, daily, the sun rise and the sun set. Not to mention my house was facing the west (kitchen, dining rm, family rm) ...a constant view.  [work & home] I mentioned to my family... not sure they understand the depth of my feelings on this!
Lately, I have been lured into the Facebook scene. One of my very few 'APPS'  [gee, is that spelled correctly?] is the "Message from God"....and eerily today this- is- what-I-read----
"Allow yourself time to be nourished with the beauty of this world. Watch the sun rise, gaze at the ripples of water on the lake, listen to the songbirds, feel the breath of the breeze, glory in the colors of the sunset, feel the magic of the moon. This beauty is the air for your soul.""
......this IS what I need and miss  after all the stress/details/move....and other stuff.  
~Note To Self:  need to work on this in the next few days~
