Chalk it up to Me being Me!

- November 28, 2022

I sit here eagerly awaiting the snows first arrival of W inter 2022-2023 kick off while I take small sips of my mock Starbucks coffee. It is cookie dough flavored today. Straight up black coffee with Toll House creamer and a small swirl of keto whipping cream that was left over from an uneaten 4 slices of pumpkin pie. The drink tastes nothing like the "real" stuff but who am I to complain really? I am just happy to have some calm before I start a night shift. Yesterday teased me into a frenzy . I spent most of the evening looking towards the blackened sky hoping for ... well, you get it. If we don't dream- dreams can't come true. I am still finding my gaze is upwards towards the quick forming clouds. It is 38* right now so anything that falls to Earth around here will only be water in its drippy-est form.

I really don't know what it is about this time of year but for me it always seems to "hit" so much different. Most people look forward to Summer. The longer days, the picnics & warm beach splashing's. I, myself, count down the moments until life grows colder in the day & turns darker sooner at night. I guess I will admit that as one (and I am not saying me) gets older there are a lot of things that tend to be forgotten or just swept away as the past. Times that were once lived. Times that were once enjoyed. Times that are now left behind. Lost memories. I am not one of those people. Growing up in The Redmond House was nothing short of amazing. A life that many others can only long for & even though I was younger at the time it was all happening, I knew it was special. I knew how lucky I was. To this day I still remember all those feelings & still know how truly lucky I am to have been apart of somet...
