Long day here as you could see if you saw my refrigerator. I took all of Lennon's letters and made my own crossword puzzle. Hotai and the Great Turtle are just hold overs from Lennon playing here before he went home and Gramma began playing.
Nothing planned happened today, which says a lot for not living in the future and looking forward to things, something I knew even as a young child. Expectations are just let downs waiting to happen. Had I been inflexible, today would have been hard, but I am back to normal, so everything is fine.
My interview did not happen. The interviewer was called out of town unexpectedly and had to leave immediately. They sent a helicopter to fetch him far away and I will see him in a few months. Who and why is a mystery as always, but I do know that sometimes he works for NATO and The United Nations and always he works for peace in peaceful, loving ways.
Here I was, crème brûlée in the fridge, dinner started in various and sundry ways and no one here to eat it, so tomorrow my son's family will have a wonderful dinner and I am already enjoying the crème brûlée.
It does make me think, though. I know so many people doing really good deeds right now that it makes me feel like a drop out, like I am doing nothing, but I know that is not true. I have done a few good things in the past and right now I am helping a new human being get the best possible start in a long and what I am sure will be a good and productive life. That really is no small thing and it would be false humility for me to pretend otherwise.
So, here's to those who help each other, that's really what it's all about!
