"Come the day, thief of the night
Lifts its voice to sing
Now rise up, rise up
Ever victorious
Know the time, know the light
Comes the sun again
Now rise up, rise up
Ever victorious"
- Thea Gilmore "Sol Invictus"
Seems like summer has arrived. Predictions of going up into the 90's. Yikes!!!! It is too soon for that. Don't know if I am ready for that. Spent the last few days racing through the rain drops. Yesterday it was only a shower on my way home from work, but on Tuesday, by the time I got home, my toes were all shriveled from being wet so long. It is so, so good to see the sun. Just not looking forward to the humidity that is supposed to go along with it. Hubby had a hard time of it. He's a man who has always been on the go, and it is hard for him to give up the things he once enjoyed...like his long walks to the park on hot summer days.
I told someone the other day I would post a picture of Miss Minga, and here it is. This is my girl. Love her with all my heart.
It's totally official now. My job is being posted. Officially I have 31 days to go, but I also have nine sick days to use up and a holiday in between. As I sit here procrastinating, wishing I didn't have to go, I'm thrilled with the thought of being free, of being able to sleep as late as I wish and decide for myself if I want to go out in the bad weather or not. Breakfast has not been a big thing in my house as we both had jobs and usually ate out because there was no time to eat in the morning. But, now I have been hoarding recipes of special and healthy breakfast treats. I can't wait, but oddly, now as I am anxiously awaiting something, time has slowed to a standstill...much like when I was a child awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus. I always said that time passes to quickly; well, now it is just the opposite.
But, that is okay, too, for it is nice to have something to look forward to. May you all have a great day.

In some ways time has sped up in the last few years and yet I can totally understand how life seems to drag when waiting for a big phase. How exciting all your plans seem. Miss Minga is just darling!

ReplyDeleteI too am not ready for this heat. Time for AC and iced tea. How exciting it must feel that a new beginning, a new freedom is right around the corner waiting to embrace you. Breakfasts will taste even better. :) Miss Minga is precious!
