Well, this morning I actually took the time to lay in bed for a bit after awakening and listen to the day unfold around me. I can't hear much in the house as my room is upstairs and the door was closed but every once in a while a bird would chirp or the water would gush through the pipes when a tap was turned on. The room was dark when I opened my eyes, but didn't take too long to get lighter as the sun rose behind my closed curtains. I decided I was going to have a good day - no matter what!
I made a coffee, greeted my husband D who was already stressed to the max because his cat wouldn't stay in the yard and he had to go and get him a couple of times from the neighbors. Not sure why it was an issue for him though as we live on an acreage and the cat is outside all the time. Who knows where he wanders during the day. Anyway, after he vehemently denied being stressed, I realized here we go again. Another delusional character in the play of life wanting to deny that there is anything amiss in his world that he cannot handle. I immediately dismissed him from my thoughts with the comment, "Of course you are fine, what was I thinking?" and headed to my office coffee in hand to check email and Face Book. His mumbled words of something followed me up the stairs - no idea what the words were.
He did make his way eventually upstairs to shower and seemed a bit more settled so I again went downstairs to make his breakfast of toast, peanut butter, orange and milk. Amicable chatter about the particular channel he was watching on TV as he had breakfast, my mind distracted by our little female house cat chasing her paper ball and then carrying it in her mouth across the room. So far, she is the most interesting character of the day!
D is off to work, I am doing up the books for the bookkeeper so the GST can be calculated and we can pay the Gov their share at the end of the month.
I have Celine Dion playing on the stereo and my stereo skips every once in a while annoying the crap out of me. It never did play properly since I got it as a birthday gift a few years ago from D.
Maybe patience will become my gift soon. Oh, and I checked to see if B received the laptop I sent him so he could stay in touch with the world as his seemed to be crapping out on him - tracking at the PO website says he picked it up or it was delivered at 16:00 hours yesterday. Maybe he and his highly dysfunctional ex-wife will nicely disappear into the mists of time with their stories of angst and gunny sacks full of lies and daggers. Today, I really don't care. At least right now, today I am going to have a good day!
until next time...
