Such a fun song!

 No, no love, just enjoying a great song that I would sing to myself when I was feeling a little silly.  I am feeling a little silly.

Quiet solitude

After a busy day at work, when I get home all I want to do is .  .  .  .  nothing.  At work I am like, oh yeah I'll get the laundry done, wash the dishes, organize my pile of papers, you know the same bull hokey.  But when I get home it is another story; I am beat.  Though at night before I go to bed I enjoy writing, not necessarily to any particular person, but just sitting on my bed with my laptop, like now.  I enjoy the quietness of my home with light music playing from my laptop; gotta love Pandora!!  I like sharing my thoughts with whoever gives a rip or doesn't.  It doesn't matter because I am sharing from my heart and depths of my soul.  Who knew I could do that.  Sometimes I write because it is the only time I can write about how amazing life truly is.  I am still grateful, tired, but grateful.  Well, before I go off on a tangent I will resign to sign off and go to bed.  Blessings and good night to you and Thank You, Father for another day.

In the shadows

My life seems to be falling into a sense of balance right now.  I am so grateful for that.  I am also grateful for my friends who have been a pillar of strength at times for me, I so appreciate them.  I am still trying to tackle the piles of papers that need to be organized and I hate to say it, but the pile is getting bigger everyday.  AUGH!!!  I will continue packing up my home as time permits, or if I have the energy to do it.  I know, I know!!  I have to get down to the nitty gritty and get my work done.

I did receive a text from a friend wanting to make plans.  So we discussed going to the Ivywild School for dinner.  The Ivywild used to be an elementary school that was closed several years ago, the school is an old relic which is a fantastic architectural jewel.  Well there is a eatery, bakery and a brewery in the school now; really a swanky place if I do say so myself.  When I walked in the halls of this old school several weeks ago, I imagined the shadows of children who passed through these halls and what their lives might have become.  Also, it could have been the Honey Wheat beer I had . . . anyways . . . . I have always loved old buildings and have always been intrigued in reference to the people who occupied the homes and buildings and if these people loved these timely dwellings.  I know I do.

Anyways . . . that is the plan, but when dealing with my friend she can change her mind very quickly.  So, I will include the link to this intersteing building that will continue to hold shadows of many more people who come through it's doors and enjoy a lovely meal, baked good, music and a beer.  http://ivywildschool.com/

Have a great weekend!!

 

 

Til I hear it from you-AMERICA style

It has been a real eye opener on how things work.  I haven't heard from my lawyers since I lost my case and I believe I won't.  I have been well though and just pushing forward to what lies ahead.  I was able to enjoy a fantastic concert given by my favorite band, "AMERICA."   They played in Colorado Springs at the Pike's Peak Center and they were spectacular!!  I was able to get a ticket, only the last ticket for an amazing price and I went.  Yes, I went alone.  It didn't feel funny and people around you get to talking, so it didn't matter.  I am not saying that it didn't feel weird.  I would have preferred going with a friend, but sometimes an opportunity opens up and you take it.  I have been taking some baby steps on getting back to what I was doing before I had my aneurysm.  I need to start my healthy eating, resting and exercising mode.  It is hard to start up again, but I need to do it for me.  I love taking fun chances of enjoying my life again.  I am very much looking forward to hiking, walking and cruising areas in Colorado that I have never been to.  I want to explore my state a little this Summer.  I want to attend some more amazing concerts this Summer.  I want to maybe even fall in love.  Okay, the falling in love thing will probably not happen any time soon, but I got a little carried away with my writing.  Though, it was nice feeling that kind of excitement.  I hate to say this, but I miss writing to Mr. Man.  I really do.  I miss the friendship we were developing.  Oh well .  .  .  .

So, as I am about to close out.  I am so grateful to the Lord, He made it possible for me to attend the concert this past Friday.  I am so glad I went. I always wanted to see AMERICA and they were really fantastic!!!  No gimmicks, just a plain old fashioned rock concert with great music and down to earth people who brought fun nostalgia to many in attendance.  Thank you, AMERICA!!  You rock!!
