WHEW that was really close...


I almost forgot to wish you a very happy TGIF, no, that’s not it… wait a minute I got it, Happy Winter Solstice, nah? I thought it was something earth shattering, but whoosh it got lost in this dull thingy in my noggin I euphemistically call a brain…oh… now I remember we are going to end something… warmer, warmer, warmer…THE WORLD! Oh no, did I miss it? Wait a minute…I’m still here and I know you are, since I am talking/writing at you. Whew that was a close one; or not! Amazing how so many things confuse us human beings, hmm? The Maya calendar was misinterpreted and then some who thought they knew what was what got real scared and did some things in preparation for ‘the end’ that once again did not come, thankfully! What a scary thought! We all know the end will come some day, individually, a given, Global Warming, more than likely, another BIG BANG Theory, possibility, asteroids/meteors crashing into earth, … tomorrow, next week, next year, maybe in a century or another millennium, who knows who should really care? Most of those things we have no power to change. Some a little, but others we may already be too far gone to make a dent in its outcome. We are nothing but willing to try though that’s what is right and wrong with us humans… Some of us think that we have more power than we actually do with delusions of grandeur of changing the world, its okay, there is wiggle room enough for every mindset! Some days I feel that way too, well I used to. Not so much anymore; funny to think about that. Just the other night I mentioned to number one son when he called that Hubby was getting us a couple of Big Macs at Mickey D’s, they had a special buy one get the second for a penny, and he said that’s not healthy! Gosh, he is my kid, yep after twenty-nine and half hours of labor, it’s him… any-who… I told him that at this point we don’t eat them that often and besides we only have about a quarter of our lives left anyway, so why not? I was kidding, and he acted shocked. His new gal has him eating healthier than he used to so now he’s the health food Nazi, well good for him! All those years I tried it, it didn’t work, but one woman closer to his age and all of a sudden he’s Dr. Oz? Thankfully, I neglected to tell him that Hubby also picked up an order of medium fries and a chocolate shake, but we shared them. Being a parent never stops and I suppose even thought he is forty now I guess adult/children, another oxymoron, do learn by example and we should set a better one or keep our escapades to ourselves… Besides the world might have ended today and then it wouldn’t have mattered… it still could tomorrow, or the next, or the next…nah with our luck I will confess to our gastronomic unhealthy mischievous undertakings and be told again, NOT HEALTHY…if I am lucky! On that note of who knows what, allow me to be the first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you all to kindly count all your blessings and share all those overages with the Sandys and we will too! And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?!
