Inflatable Sheep

So, here I sit in my backyard typing on my new MacBook Pro, Molly. Broke out the sprinkler for the first time and am watering the front and back yards. Oscar's on his outdoor cage preening, Teddy's laying at my feet, new boy, Sammy, is tethered in dry grass. Only 2 feet tall, he can still bound over a six foot fence.

John and I are back together as of last November. It's a wonder what drop-kicking 26 years of grudges can do. Actually gives you a chance to breathe again, get fresh air. For the residual feelings that still come up, we deal with it right then and go on. I like this way better.

We just got back from Arkansas after his dad had a heart attack, when a couple of days later we get the phone call saying he had died. John flew back to take care of arrangements. I have no time off at work and rent must be paid.

On top of it all, I got sick. Today's the first day with no fever. I think I'm gonna live.

What a nice slice right now. Warm weather, flowers blooming, so much pretty green.

I think I'll leave it at that.
