Pondering...

I'm sitting here in 17C weather with no rain, a hint of fall in the air, in the absolutely gorgeous world renowned Muskokas where I live, feeling quite.... happy. This would not be remarkable in itself if it wasn't so unusual. Guess things were bound to improve at some point, but ever the eternal pessimist, I find myself actually thrilled to be having a change in my life... even if only for a few stolen moments of quiet....

Which has just been broken by an unhappy sick little boy....

So what prompted this incredibly unusual occurance? Was it the lack of fighting and carousing that didn't happen last night in the complex where I live? Was it the pulling out of my squash plants as a futile effort which relieved some frustration that had been pent up? Was it the thought that the boys are starting school again in the fall with 2 going full-time? Perhaps the fact that the Highland Games are on and there will be a bit of Scotland here for a day....Was it the fact that my body just had a dose of Tai Chi and meditation after an absense of months...

Or is it that I have finally just accepted my lot in life and I have finally come to terms with it?

All right, even I must admit that that one is a bit dubious but it was worth pondering....

Happiness engulfed me for a few brief moments and made my entire week seem that much better. I hope it engulfs you at some point this weekend.

David turns 6 on Sunday. Happy Birthday to an amazing son. I am so blessed to have you in my life. :))

Love to you all,
