Friday, May 4, 2012 – Summery Spring Morning
Out at 7:00 to taste the new day. It sure smells like a summery-spring morning. The birds are singing at the top of
their lungs. (Yes, dear birds, I bought
another bag of your favorite food for the bird feeder in the back yard.) Remnants of clouds are veils of thin
silk against the watercolor blue of the sky. In all directions, I see green. Even those tall oaks, who were shy about showing their
colors, are completely cloaked in green now. In my neglected flowerbed out front, mint is running
rampant, a reminder to me to get some annuals plants – but probably not today. There are too many other things on the
list, starting with breakfast and a morning workout. After that, I’ll switch into “good daughter” mode, doing paperwork
for my mother and taking her out for lunch and a pedicure. Sweet Katie may have lost a lot of her short-term
memory but she hasn’t lost her cheerful smile and endearing personality. Well, I’d better get that oatmeal
started.
