They Do Come True

As if the big weather vane in the sky heard me,
I woke to a bit of that yellow stuff trying
 to squeak through the clouds.
Of course, since I've written about it,
it'll go away but until it does,
I'll be working in my disaster
called a yard.
So, imagine me
listening to birds
and dreaming
 like my dog does.
(my dream is a lovely gardenlike yard
and my dog dreams of sitting on her
deck and barking at squirrels)

That is great that the sun came out - hopefully it will hang around for you for a while. We have gray skies today - they are fine with me (I like storms as long as I don't have to have the car out in them - because the car leaks, not because of the driving). But if you are feeling down after a lot of rain and gray skies it is great to see that sun peak through. Good luck with the gardening - I am not a gardener but I know it is a lot of hard work!

There comes a time in your life when you walk away from all of the drama and the people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right and pray for those who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of life, getting back up is living.
