Oh What A Beautiful Morning!

I know it might come across as a bit "corny"

but I feel this way today.....

Hope you do too....

smiles

What's your philosophy?

I guess that it speaks to my intelligence 

that I embrace the philosophy of a dog.....

a very specific dog....

a famous one, no less....

that would be..

Snoopy!

He has never failed me....

Even though his owner Charlie Brown 

has his tails of woe (sorry for the pun)

not Snoopy.....

brilliant in all his reactions to life,

this dog is priceless..

He has friends, too.

Like Linus...

I'm with you Linus, ol' pal....

Then there is 

Charlie,

who needs the calm reassurance of his 

canine companion...

Snoopy

fits into any crowd,

regardless of race, religion or breed...

(sorry again)

Snoopy knows his place in the 

grand scheme of things...

On top of his house..

Snoopy is

loyal,

kind,

compassionate,

faithful,

calm in the face of danger,

perhaps, 

he is a 

Boy Scout!

He is also creative...

Ah,

and a leader amongst 

a herd of followers...

A counselor to the troubled....

He is my hero...

Thank you Mr. Schulz,

wherever you are....

smiles

Ahhh, now that feels much better!

Yes

it 

does....

Amazing to me...

what a weekend of doing 

absolutely nothing 

that

I don't 

want to do....

does for my attitude.

Lest you think me

a big blob of laziness,

I did laundry (couldn't wait!)

I vacuumed (also couldn't wait!)

and I 

re-wrapped

 every

 single

 wedding/shower

 gift, 

left at our house,

 in bubble wrap and tissue,

in preparation 

for delivery later in the summer.

I was soooooo

ready to have the whole affair behind me

that I couldn't wait to get my life back.

The sheets are clean,

the guest room is available,

the carpets are crap-free,

the kitchen has been re-stocked,

the flowers freshened,

the patio swept,

well,

you get the picture,

Of course,

all this cleaning up

has triggered an onslaught of 

HOT-FLASHES!

HOLY FLAMING HEAD, BATMAN!

the last few nights have been 

an exercise in aerobics,

in and out of the bed,

potty visits,

change of gowns,

re-directing the fan....

but at least 

I have my home back...

smiles.
