Thank you

Category: Family,MusingsBill Mason @ 4:48 am

Thank you to my wife Miriam for loving me, marrying me, putting up with me at my worst, being patient waiting for my best. Or my better, anyway. And for being the best mom to two boys who I also thankful for. Thank you kids for bearing with Dad when he’s having a bad day. I love you very much, even during the times I’m incapable of showing it.

Thank you to the friends in the social media cyberspace sphere. Thank you for crossing my path in a time where the technology to cross paths exists, especially those of you on the other side of the world. Thank you for sharing your lives with me.

Thank you life, even on those days I think you’re trying to break me. “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” Thanks for not killing me just yet.

Thank you to all the medical people who brought my mother through her recent surgery. Enough said.

Thank you to whoever invented music so long ago, and for those practicing the art today. Sometimes the music is the only way to keep the day going.

Thanks universe for keeping me here sometimes in spite of my sleep disorder.

Just, thanks. Happy Thanksgiving.

Cooling rain

Category: MusingsBill Mason @ 9:37 pm

When you need to cool your temper off, having it be cold and raining and breezy helps.

The brick of the front steps is cold under my bare feet. Over in the front garden, a spider comes out of the dirt, makes an arc on the patio concrete and back into the dirt again. I guess it looks like a more hospitable landscape.

I’m ready to go back inside now. As I walk in, the turtle splashes frantically hoping I’ll feed him. I can do that.
