Clouds, pouring rain, a little sun peeking out, and more rain. I tried to capture each phase today while I was out.

Gallery

This weekend has been busy. Last night I went to a birthday party of a very well, loved gal. She had a lot of people there and of course I did take some photos. Between the rains, high winds and … Continue reading
Let’s Start This Day
Let’s Start This Day
Morning dawn
Crawl out of bed
I don’t know if I slept
I feel a little dead
No sun to see
Put slippers on
A chill in the air
I think summer is gone
Measure coffee to make
Go pee in the pot
Looking in mirror
Did I have a few shots?
Flip television on
Listen to the news
Nothing is good
Always gives me the blues
Brain starts to wake
Thinking of today
Guess I’ll get dressed
And be on my way.

Sun To Come
Waiting For Spring
Waiting For Spring
Snow is melting
Ice is slick
Wind is blowing
Air is thick.
Winter still here
A tease of Spring
One day it’s freezing
Another day I sing.
February is short
And yet so long
Can’t wait for warmth
Barefoot or thongs.
For now I will just wait
And take a sample of Spring
The cold winds of winter
Will continue to ring.

We Have Had Enough!
I feel sometimes, such as today, that I have let so many of you down. I read a lot of comments on how strong I am, and now I am leaning on medications to pick me back up. I realize now that it has been a long, tough road. I realize I am not Superwoman.
I am so thankful my friend is here, but am already wondering if she is getting tired of being here, or worse yet, bored. Going away to others place to visit is nice, but it isn’t home.
I guess I am just having one of those days. I didn’t sleep well last night. I counted on the caregiver being here today, but with the snow we received, I wasn’t surprised to hear from her she wasn’t coming.
The nurse didn’t come either and with the snow being so heavy this winter, I think I am just about like everyone else here in the Midwest. I am screaming inside, go away snow! We have had enough. Bring some warmth above 10 degrees and let us have a sample of Spring.
Al is basically the same except last night for the first time in days, he whispered to me. I was able to figure out what he wanted. It was a miracle? I don’t know how long it will last but it is nice while it last.
The big goose egg bump on his head is no longer there. During the sleeping hours it opened up on its own. He has no new blisters which is a good thing. He is staying awake much more than he was.
It is like we are having a couple of days that are like earlier times in his illness. Reminds me of when I was about to deliver for my kids. Those few days before arrival of the baby, I had so much energy I did what ever I could cram into one day.
So like everyone around me, I am fidgety and restless. My car has set for so long that I now fear the tires will go low. It is a terrible car for driving on snow. So I am hoping and crossing my eyes and fingers on seeing a warmer day very soon.

Please Pray
Please pray for Al and me as the weather is getting bad soon here. Tornadoes and very high winds are supposed to arrive. I have been praying. I am not so worried for myself, but I am concerned for Al.
I have spoken to him a few times about the weather and what I will be doing as my plan if it gets bad. I have every thing in the bathroom and his wheelchair is ready and waiting. He moves so slow and I can’t pick him up, so please pray, God takes care of us. This is the one time I don’t like living in a trailer.
