What feeds your soul?

Tomorrow is MrB's and my 28th anniversary. Even though I highly doubt he will ever see this, I'd like to say,

MrB, honey, I love you. We've been through a lot together, you and I, and I can't remember a time when you weren't my friend, companion, cheerleader and lover. For better or worse, it's you and me, kid.

Happy Anniversary, BG and Mr. BG! I wish you many, many more years of happiness and love.


And yes, BG, I am following you...it's the AV...I just can't seem to help myself!

No problem, GG! She is mesmerizing.

You made me smile too!

Just make sure you get up early in the morning and get rid of the morning paper....unless he already knows there's 3 NFL football games on Saturday.

Congrats and here's to wishing you both many more.

Oh, he knows. If you look up football widow in the dictionary, there I am. I used to be able to distract him from the games, if you know what I mean. Maybe I'll drag out the little red negligee and take WW's advice about the bow.

Thanks to all of you for the good wishes.

Right now, I am sitting here marveling over a very touching e-mail from a somewhat unexpected source. I am honored that she trusted me with her thoughts. Thank you, sweetie.

My son's coming home for about 4 weeks.

It's interesting, we have a better relationship now than we have ever had, and I think he feels the same way.

I guess we had butt heads (no, not buttheads) a lot when he was younger. Him wanting to be Mr. Independent, me being a father. It's nice to see him grow both socially and intellectually.

I can't wait to see him.

That's very sweet, MrWag. You made me smile.

Laughing at myself - and this is a good thing because I have ample opportunity every day. The best one so far today: this afternoon I reached into the cupboard to get a fresh coffee filter and pulled down a can of dog food instead. Now this wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't then opened the can before realizing that it wasn't going to help my coffee any.

This is funny, but also begs the question: Was this a can with a pull tab, or did you need to get a can opener to open it?

I can't be sure if you think that it would have been worse to use the opener or not, but it was a pull-tab can. Either way, it shows that my brain is not at its finest today.

my little brother saying "mmm" with every spoon he gets when we feed him...

Knowing how much my mom loves me and that her love has not lessened even when I'm having a high-strung moment.

music....

laying next to a gf/bf while they are sleeping and staring at them as they're in another world...

cuddling with a gf/bf and being okay if that is as far as it goes...

I love the first kiss. When you've fallen for someone and it's been days/weeks/months and everytime you look at them you long to kiss their lips and then... finally! How you fade away into another world.. indescribable!

having my lil cousin (2 yrs old) saying "sissy <easier for her to say> I wuv you more den da howe wide worl" awww - the joys!

sitting by the seashore on a warm summer evening, listening to the waves crash against the rocks.

Taking my guitar and sitting by the seashore playing...

Oh, Yank. This is a bobsgirl thing to do. I prefer to look at it as my brain being so full of important thoughts that there is no room for a mundane thing like opening a can of pet food at the wrong time. Just be glad you didn't dump it in the coffee maker.

I think of opening a pull tab can is a one-step procedure, which could have easily been done by habit after grabbing the wrong item. Using a can opener is a multiple step procedure, you have to work harder to make the mistake come to full fruition.

Either way, it's still funny.

Yep, it certainly was. And bobsgirl is right: at least I ended up making coffee and not hot, diluted dog food.

Biscuits, yummy biscuits.

This is a little odd, but today WFMS is nail polish. On a lark I bought a deep pink/berry shade I wouldn't normally consider for fingernails because it wasn't in the "safe" range of skin-complimenting colors and seemed way too bold.

A couple of coats later, I get a little thrill every time I see my hands. They look like those of another woman; the nails are just so not me. On the other hand *obligatory groan* they really are a wonderful representation of a piece of me, just one that's not flaunted outwardly very often.

It's the simplicity, diversion from the ordinary, reminder I'm sexy, can choose to take risks and be confident, and am really starting to embrace and fuel this part of me that's been secreted away for so long out of fear --all in the form of a colorful little bottle-- that feeds my soul.

Erika, that is so cool - very cool.

WFMS...

* Broken cookies.

* A beautiful handmade gift from a friend.

* Being lazy and talking with my sister about what we might have for Christmas dinner... we'll definitely know sometime tomorrow - we hope.

* Broken cookies - yea, well I broke a few.

* Sitting through an uncomfortable feeling or two, knowing they'd pass.

* Love in all it's forms.

Erika, that is seriously inspirational. Nail polish as a metaphor for embracing one's inner sexiness and confidence. I like it!

Merry Christmas to all of you!

Hearing her laugh... knowing I helped make this time of year a bit easier for her... feeling close to her...

WFMS...

* Getting a wonderful Christmas card ~ it was just what I needed. I was glad to have a full honey jar to get through the rest of the day. Thank you D.

* Receiving a surprise gift in the mail... a very thoughtful gift from a wonderful woman, a sweet friend. Thank you E.

* Helping two special kids deal with the death of their grandpa. Letting them know it was just fine to cry and be angry then wanting to celebrate Christmas.

* Laughter with a nutty friend. Thanks, I so needed that.
