worst. year. evah

A new way to know if it's raining.

Well, it's raining.

My mother once said that when I got mad/ upset as 
"H-E-double hockey sticks"
my eyes would turn greener.

Another color changing entity

Fly, fly, fly like a statue of an eagle

Welcome to Buddha Gardens!

Under construction.
Well, maybe it's a good sign.

Might need to dig deeper into my tool selection....
Elliot's Hardware is always a treat

Driving around from case to case.
No show tunes today....
Mozart piano concertos on the iPod

Shades of hazel.
And a wry smile.
So no one has to run away.
I seldom get mad.
I just cry like a (fill in the blanca).
Well, I DID react by crying, until most recently.
If depression is "learned powerless-ness," then I'm not depressed!

There's a line from the movie "The Red Shoes." (1948)
"Not even the best magician in the world can produce a rabbit
out of a hat, if there is not already 
a rabbit IN the hat!"

So today, I pulled a rabbit, so to speak.
There might be one or two more in there.

In many ways, this has been the best year I have ever had.
In some ways, I cannot ever imagine a worse year!
As my once fave book called it:
"a caricature of creation."

Now I remind myself that this situation calls for 
correction - not punishment.
From me, to me.

So I am still in a good enough mood.
Probably better than I would have been,
And definitely better than I was!
At least I am learning how to handle things better.
And not just hide, and wait for it to pass.
My Spiritual Advisor calls that kind of rumination "mental masturbation."
(Who me? What - no way!)

Regular problems are one thing.
It's the unnecessary problems that cause a burden.
The drama and rage - I can do without that!
Isn't life challenging enough sometimes?

No Monster. Doing good on the caffeine cut-back.
Might be key in my being "proactive" instead of  "reactive" ??
Ya think? :D

Diet Ginger Ale w/lime
Diet cream soda w/protein
Hamburger w/ heinz 57
Water, coffee, guarana
Snack pack of mixed nuts
A couple of slices of ham and cheese

I hope you are having a peaceful and happy day.
Inner peace counts double!
