It's the middle of the week. A middle pretty much like any other. Today, like many other middles, is beautiful. The sun is shining, the wind's a blowin', the temperature is comfortable and all seems right with the world. It is Fall, after all.
I say that now, as I sit here with my third cup-o-joe (the gnats claimed my second cup ~ sly little buggers!) and my oatmeal. I know from past experience that that can change in the blink of an eye, or, by a puddle left behind by Baby Girl. Oh yea, we are ~ dare I say it ~ potty training. She seems to have her own agenda for this task and has yet to clue me in. Some days are easy-peasy, others ~ can I just say ~ "I'm tempted to bang my head into the wall."? Yes, yes I am. But then things settle ~ only after I have a chat with God and am reminded that she's just itty bitty and that this too shall pass (hopefully in the toilet and not on my floor). I know all too well that tomorrow I will look back and she will be in school, and a week from now, going to college. I know it. I see the evidence every day. Sense a little nostalgia here? Yea, me too.
Well, going to finish me eats, and me java, and go look at quilt pieces and ponder what to do and ask twenty-one million times: "Do you need to go to the bathroom?".
And. . . .
I'll see YOU in the funny papers!
