It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new.
But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful.
There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.

Over so fast !

For me, this morning ... the weekend is over.
Waking to a dark morning, rain and dreariness and the little family packed and ready to leave.
I didn't even have my 3rd cup of coffee yet !!

I am alone again with the kitten.
I am weeping from sadness that the time went so fast, I didn't get in enough baby kisses and laughs and fun.
Minette is walking around howling ... she can't find her little bitty boy.
She likes him.
Sometimes he has food on him.

I spent more time cleaning, shopping and cooking in anticipation of the visit, than the actual length of time of the visit  ...

Ah well, I must work on Hobbies, finding one ... Friends, finding one ... Travel and Adventure .. dreaming of that one.

  1. That's the trouble when the family visit …. they have to leave !!
    Chin up …. I'm sure they will visit again soon and the bonus is that you have a very clean and tidy house !!!! …. there's always a positive to be found. XXXX

    1. Jacqueline, yes, these days the house is clean and tidy and I am wishing it were noisier and messy and all I can hear is laughter. Instead, I am trying to teach Minette to talk, she probably has ideas I never dreamt of !

  4. I can't tell you how good it is to ready your posts again!! Thank you so very much for sending me your message. I am home today from work and it came as such a delightful surprise. My heart goes out to you as it's so hard when the excitement of friends/family comes to an end and you're left with a temporary silence. I love your sense of humor and you've brought a smile to my face too!! You have a good day; if it makes you feel any better, it's crrrrrrrap here in Scotland too!! Hugs to you my friend xx

    1. Deb, I am sooo glad you wrote. You have to give me your email address so I can annoy you privately.
      Somehow I think I would rather be in crap weather in Scotland right now instead of Upstate NY .. love to you !
