i am cozy. in spite the rain, slush, sleet and wind. i'm cozy and well.
just don't piss in my flowerbeds.
things are working out. falling into place. i've discovered that in the circumstances where things don't go smoothly, it's often because i haven't the slight clue what i'm doing.
i'm kind of like a guy in that i only read instructions when things are working. which is funny because frank is the total opposite – prints out every manual and reads every word. he is wary, i am speedy. i charge ahead.
i've started checking my motives. i ask myself probing questions to find any disguised justification for my actions. i'm checked out ok.
funny this word 'ok'. last week i would have defined ok as 1) scraping by, 2) the bare minimum 3) still alive/still breathing. when today i define ok as 1) firmly grounded/established, 2) taken care of, 3) all right/as it should be. i like this week's definition best. there's nothing wrong with being just ok, it's usually just a starting line anyway.
they are the lanterns and you are the light.

My conviction is that God intended every created thing to have a manual. (Cf. the Bible). Hence, now that we have purchased a car that doesn't have a manual, I'm going a little crazy. How do you know if a thing is "OK" if you haven't read the manual to know how it is supposed to work. Nice to hear you're OK. Me, too.
thanks bobbers! i'm glad you're ok too.
perhaps you should take a walk on the wild side and try to build a birdhouse without following the instructions. report back to me with the results ok??
Someone pissed on my pansies last summer and they died. I actually watched him do it from my window, but was too stunned to do anything. AARGH!
jeepers. that's awful! and gross. i'd be pretty stunned too. crazy main street!
