I am up early for it to be a weekend. I went to bed at 1:30AM and woke from a bad dream at 7:00AM. In this dream I was lost and a young woman took some of my clothes. I struggled to wake up. Thank God I was able to tell myself it was only a dream. There was one part where a young girl had my full attention and she made more sense than any of the rest of the dream. She was telling a story, but the details did not stay with me.
Happy Easter to those who celebrate! Hope the rest of you have the best of days! I have lots of laundry to do today. That should keep me somewhat busy.
Something light to give you a smile:
Fixation
I want a cookie!
I want a cookie,
But the jar is empty.
This is good.
This is good,
I do not need sweets,
Trying to keep my figure.
That does not stop me
From wanting some,
Never only one.
Never only one,
But at least I can
Ignore the temptation
Since it remains unattainable,
So unattainable.

I ran out of Girl Scout Cookies… and when I ran across this it seemed appropriate.
Be Exposed
Shiver, and be real…
To me now.
Letting soft fingers
Run so slow
That your thinking turns
Away from
Your self-centered
Places freely.
Echoing distant
Melodies
You just remember,
Bare as snow
On dried Winter grass.
Then feel me
Hot as blazing sun
Surround you,
In a song so new
Begun that
Tears prickle your clear
Eyes shining
Brilliant with new life.
Then once more,
Shiver, and be real…

I need to go get the laundry started, so I will be back in a bit.
Always,
Jo Ann
