This morning I am home sick .. not homesick ... just at home and feeling sick. But, this too shall pass, once I run to the drugstore and buy the right kind of medication. I may even make it back into work this afternoon. Though my bounce back time is not what it used to be. That's what old age can do to you ... slows you right down. Won't be long and I will be doing the old soft shoe shuffle, dragging my shawl behind me, and muttering senselessly.
Its Monday and the start of another week. Looking kind of gloomy out there. Leaves need to be raked and dead flowers need to be pulled before the snow flies "again". Where did the year go? It is hard to believe that Christmas is only 67 days away .. and then another new year.
The house is quiet now. The dogs, Missy and Oscar, are sleeping side by side on their window seat. Dennis is gone to give platelets and won't be back for a couple of hours. I would really like to take a nap. I have been awake since 4 a.m. but oh, wait, some neighbor is trimming trees with a powersaw. There goes my tranquility.
Guess that is my signal to get moving... go out and get those drugs ... then get back into the land of the living.
