up and
........time to get down. as in lie flat, be still......'leaf life alone" make like broccoli or celery and completely veg out. .........something like that...
if i could i would disconnect my back and send it to anger management. poor angry mad back. i would take a shower, but brushing my teeth and making the trip here used up my small stash of spoons for now. i used my surplus energy recently cooking and bending. the good news? i made chicken and some chops and potato salad and cookies too. back here in overdidit, ga again.
want to share that i heard from an old pal. she called out of the blue and we had dinner together saturday night. it was nice.....being out, in a restaurant, we had a nice waiter named Marcus who did us a solid......directed us to the great two friends can get a tasty dinner on the Chili's 2 for $20 meal deal. Nice and we split a molten chocolate dessert. decadently moist chocolate cake........with hot fudge........vanilla ice cream dipped in chocolate........one big plate, two round soup spoons so you don't miss any of that sweet fudge........mercy! it was nice......we sat outside on a bench after wards warming up, the restaurant was freezy cold..........so we sat there and chatted.......the sun went down and it started to rain. rain is becoming my favorite season.
the other thing i want to share before i climb into my sleep chariot, yup, my comfy soft bed......is my dollar store "smile find." i was looking for a pencil sharpener......and found a giant pink eraser, the size of a bar of soap......it says, For BIG Mistakes." It was a silly purchase perhaps........but it makes me smile.....smiling is lovely.
God isn't done with me yet, there is a lot of erasing and editing that can be done and when I am discouraged it doesn't mean that I have failed......it just means that I am doing something very important.......I am STILL in it, I am trying. Every day I am trying.............that is the stuff gold medals and great dreams are made of...........even when nobody is clapping or giving us a standing ovation.......God is saying, "WAY to GO Kid, you tried..........you took a swing........he is so proud of me....of us, for all we do to try........for every time we knock the T off CAN'T and keep giving life a go.
or as one comedian said,"Don't trip, God isn't finished with me yet."
gonna lay down now..........i am a very tired birdette.......been kicking my birdlegs up a storm and i need me some rest..........hugs.

Oh sweet Sparrow! I do believe you have gone and worn yourself completely out! Again! But, yes, I know the bad habit all too well myself! I vacuumed one rug. Just one. The one in my room. This morning. Took six minutes. I am now in bed! Voila!! See how easy?? We never know exactly how much energy we have left in our teeen weeny little energy bank, until we use it! Not fair eh? Most people can vacuum a WHOLE rug. two or three, or wall to wall....but not us!! NO NO NO!!!! Course, we don\'t ever learn this lesson. Do we? Nah.....busy birdies, we are!!
I love it that you went out to eat with a friend! And YESSSSS, I know about the Molten chocolate! Of COURSE I do! Yummy! SLURP! I\'m so glad you got out of the house to enjoy eating a meal with a friend. Sorry it was so cold in there though....but you did it. And I know you just loved it!!
The eraser!! LOL..for big mistakes. A very wise purchase, I might add. I need one maself!!! God doesn\'t have to do any editing on you my friend!! He is SO pleased with His creation of our Sparrow. You are so kind, and you do try so hard, and you suffer....but you carry on and share your life and your humor with others who are feeling lost as well!! That surely makes the Master smile, when He sees us putting one foot in front of the other, even when we can\'t see the floor! It\'s called faith, and sistah (from Georgia) YOU gots dat!!!!
You rest now........big hugs from Joisey!!
