Last night J said something hilarious to B. B was talking, somewhat randomly and it was a bit hard to follow what he was getting at so J said, "Your train of thought is the B-Only Express!"
LOL!

Back in the Garden
Today was the first day of the new year that I went out and gardened again. It felt so good to get my hands dirty again as I tended to the earth and turned the soil with my hands. I loved seeing the worms and the spiders as I cleared away the weeds that have started to come in. Somehow, life doesn't seem so bad when I am gardening. The sun and breeze and smell of the dirt is like a tonic to my wounded heart.

For Nancy
This is my ode to my dear friend Nancy
I shift, I move,
I dance in and out of your sight.
We pass each other
and for a time you are the steadying hand in my life,
And then the drifting islands of circumstance pull us apart again.
I lose you sometimes only to rediscover you.
Through it all there is no resentment.
We both understand that the permanence of our friendship
comes from it's temporary nature.
When I need you, you are there.
Years may pass before I hear your voice again,
But when I do hear you,
You are as fresh and dazzling as ever.
Though most of our lives are spent in a calm, but artificial distance,
you are my friend,
And I am thinking of you now.
I shift, I move,
I dance in and out of your sight.
We pass each other
and for a time you are the steadying hand in my life,
And then the drifting islands of circumstance pull us apart again.
I lose you sometimes only to rediscover you.
Through it all there is no resentment.
We both understand that the permanence of our friendship
comes from it's temporary nature.
When I need you, you are there.
Years may pass before I hear your voice again,
But when I do hear you,
You are as fresh and dazzling as ever.
Though most of our lives are spent in a calm, but artificial distance,
you are my friend,
And I am thinking of you now.
