Weather Madness

It is so beautiful here today. I have this odd thing going on though. I'm smiling and being friendly to strangers. I had a 45-minute conversation on the sidewalk in front of Publix with the mom of a classmate from Tootie's preschool class, nearly 3 years ago. I worked in the flower beds out front, breaking off dead stuff and putting it in the garbage. I played ball with the wiener dog and haven't whacked her hard-headed ass with a magazine yet today. I either doubled up on my happy pills unknowingly or I have a case of spring fever.

The workers next door building our neighbors' house are taking a lunch break and instead of pulling their microwave out of the van to plug it into the generator, one of their wives (I'm guessing) just pulled up and opened up the back of her SUV and is pulling out trays of food wrapped in tin foil and my mouth is watering imagining what delicious Mexican goodies they are having. I wish I could walk up with a case of cold Cokes and fix me a plate and eat, too, but they would think I was crazy. I'm envisioning some delicious pork carnitas, wrapped in homemade tortillas. I do love Mexican food.

I'm good for reminding people to take their meds. :)

Wash it down with a glass of wine.

I could have used your friend that can smell infections this morning. My daughter has an ear infection.

In fact I posted about you and your friend earlier.....

And I have taken my meds today.
