Someday

Someday I will get my horse trained. Someday I will repaper my kitchen cabinets and sort out all the things I don't need and put them in a garage sale. Someday I will get the attic more organized. Someday I will visit the people I love more. Someday I will repaint the porch and while I am at it the entire house. Someday I will go to bed early and stay in bed the next morning as long as I want. Someday I will know what it is like to be loved. Someday I will finish my books. Someday I will mend relationships that need mending. Someday I will finish all the quilts I have plans for. Someday I will cut a record with all the songs I have written over the years. Someday I will pick up my guitar and start practicing again. Someday I will start back to church. Someday I will read through the Bible. Someday I will become the woman I know I can be. Someday I will feel all my efforts have been worth it. Someday I will clean out my SUV. Someday I will start and finish scrap books for all my pictures. Someday I will take a vacation to Ireland. Someday I know what it is like to graduate with my bachelors. Someday I will learn to not sweat the little stuff. Someday I will have the love and respect of my sons. Someday I will start working on Someday.

I can see the end getting closer and closer, just not fast enough. I really miss having a few minutes to myself. But however, I guess on the bright side I will have completed half of my degree requirements. It sure seems like it has been much longer than just four months. It feels like forever. I am looking forward to camping at the lake and just chilling with my family. My brother Dennis always keeps me laughing and I could use a good laugh now and again. My roses are looking great and my millions bells are in full bloom. I need to weedeat but it will have to wait until I get a moment to myself. I am going to have a lot of weeds to pull as well. I am going to try to get my tomato plants out if it will ever stop raining. Well so much for keeping ahead of things. I am tired and I can't think of anything more at the moment to write about.

Grass That Makes Me High

I love the spring. I love everything about it, the new leaves appearing on the trees and the flowers blooming. What really seems to set spring into motion is the green grass. One day it seems like everything is lifeless and then you wake up one morning and everything is green. The grass seems to go on forever and it is exhilerating. The green grass makes you feel like your spirit is reborn and you feel rejuvenated. You make plans and you seem more focused. One day you can hardly convince yourself to roll out of bed and the next morning you can't wait to greet the day. People take anti depressants more in the winter than in the spring and the elderly sink into depression over the winter months. Spring comes and the world is set right again. Even though nothing has changed the world looks like a better place. There is hope that springs up with every blade of grass that appears. If we could only bottle the feeling when spring comes, so we could take it all year long. I have even noticed in the students on campus that there is a spring in their walk and they walk with a purpose. They are more animated in their conversations and actions. Amazing what a little grass can do for a persons outlook on life.
