i've been thinking about a lot of things



And I'm not ready to tell about them all. That's for a later day... say, tomorrow? I don't know.

Anyway, yesterday I bought myself some flowers. Daisies. I saw them in the grocery store when I went with my stepdad/father/man (stepman, haha! I am so weird) grocery shopping on Saturday for my mom. I saw them in the flower case, made a mental note, and thought about them all day Sunday.

Yesterday, I had a few spare dollars. I went to the store, picked up three, two pink, one white, and went home, proud of my purchase.

I used the jug from the apple juice we had just finished drinking--Martinelli's, the really really good kind. I washed it out, clipped the flowers [then clipped them again--I think they're a little aged, and they need a little neck support, though I did my best doctoring--that's why they're a little short], and placed them on my coffee table.

And though I've had a lot of things to think about, though everything in life isn't perfect and I'm worried about a lot of things, and I'm not sure where my life is going besides work work work, I know that these flowers make me feel okay. And for that, I'm really grateful.

Flowers brightened my day, again. [That, and my housband. He is so great, but that's another story. That's the whole story.]

My favorite is the white one. That white one [inside joke].






I could possibly be back to write more tomorrow.

Yeah... it's a long story that involves Zoe, a building that's not white, and a person whose name is a fruit. I'll tell you later!

Now that I look at it, those stems look a little funny in the vase... haha. Oh well.
