One Week From Today


I'll be thirty-seven years old on the twelfth and the only thing I'm even remotely anxious about, is what color nail polish I should wear to my party! "Huh?" You say, "I knowww!" I say.

Honestly it's been a good year and I'm not going to beat myself up about the things I could have done, or things I should have done, or what might have been, had I done what I did do differently. I'm not going to spoil the Universe's plans for this new year by making lists, plans and predictions. I'm just going to...well, polish my nails and wait on something wonderful to come my way.

It's all so up in the air that should the feeling swoop upon me, I may very well hide out in the bathroom during my party and create a list on a napkin with one of those short sashimi bar pencils, or not. I don't know. But right now, at this very moment I have a clear mind and a clean slate, and I don't know about you, but that's a rarity 'round here, and it feels damn good, even if it is momentary. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to the mall.



Peace and freedom

awesome! and get yourself some killer shoes to go with that most special day - a pair that will be happy with any color of nail polish! enjoy... reap the rewards of being caring and open and kind and intelligent and thought-filled... and mostly importantly, YOU... seriously, i usually forget how old i am - my son knows though, and will happily let everyone know... i don't care - i have earned the years and lived them... i wish you all that the universe can bestow upon such a wonderful spirit...

LOVIN' that color! I'm a nail-polish connoisseur myself, so when I saw the photo, I got all ooh-I-need-to-head-to-Ulta-tomorrow-for-a-fix and had to refocus on your actual post! LOL! Happy almost-birthday, and I celebrate your current clear mind and clean slate status right along with you!! *Raising new fave nail polish (called Wet Cement) in your honor!
