Today I’m tired. Yesterday I took a nap, drank coffee, ate lots of really, sweet chocolate cake, and laughed hysterically over one of my friends’ dads. He says very funny things and who doesn’t like someone who increases your heart health? So I didn’t sleep good and had strange dreams and I’m glad to be awake now, but I’m tired.
I had a good Thanksgiving. I was with my family and ate a really good, if somewhat unbalanced, meal. Then because it’s a holiday weekend, we sat around and talked for three days and by yesterday, we’d bonded like most people do after a LONG car ride. Equivalent would be going from Colorado to Ohio, in a van, without stopping (that’s a 22 hr drive). It was a good weekend and I’m so blessed.
I think I’m going to go snowboarding this year. I’ve decided that if I hurt myself again, may as well do it this year while I have the health care that I do and before this new “equalizer and excuser of all evil” bill becomes mandatory. Besides, I love boarding, its great fun.
The last little while I’ve been thinking about waiting and how we wait for everything. We wait till we’re big enough to go to school, then till we’re big enough to graduate. We wait to get a job, and then we want to quite our job and find another job. Then there’s waiting for a guy to call, waiting to get married, waiting to have children, and then waiting till they hurry up and leave again,. And finally, we discover that we really want to enjoy life but we hit a banana peel and everyone has to wait in a line at the viewing. I know, morbid. You know the saying “good things come to those who wait?” I know why they’re “good things”, and yes I’ll even tell you. It’s because we’re all cows and the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. NOT- but almost. :) Everything we have to wait for is good because we have to wait. Who appreciates anything that is handed to them every time they snap their fingers. No, I think we place value in the wait. At least, I do. So I want to enjoy the journey, that way, I can appreciate the view at the top of the mountain. Have a super week! Sonya
