the soul kitchen

What a great idea. 

Reminds me of 541 Eatery.

It makes me want to take my business there

(not that I have a huge 'eat-out' budget)

awwwww

pot holes

Pretty much what I want to do with the holes 

that dot the roads in our city.

more monkeys and circuses

February 4th - pretty much the opposite of the same quote
 but a much better picture to go with it.

Something you take for granted

Well, if I think about it, anything really can be taken for granted.
If I can have an appreciation for it then
I can also have a lack of appreciation for it.

But I am thinking I appreciate pretty much everything.

So I suppose, then, it is the things I do not think about very often.

So I will say
Breathing,
Heart beating,
Water,
Oxygen.

There is that enough?

Pretty basic and
Pretty necessary.

And, now that I have thought about it
I no longer take it for granted.
I appreciate it very much.
And even wrote about it on my blog.
Only because my blog has gotten way too interesting as of late.

Simple things in life

Simple things are wonderful.
but then again, complicated things can be pretty wonderful too.

But it appears that I am requested to list some simple things.

A flower.
A marble.
A cloud.
A simple cross necklace.
Toothpaste.
A fresh piece of lined paper awaiting inspiration...or a list.
Homemade laundry soap.
A frozen grape.
Warm socks.

There is that simple enough?

things you like about spring
-getting out for a walk in nicer, warmer weather
-worms on the sidewalk after a rain
-robins
-pussy willows
-Andrew's birthday
-hanging clothes on the clothesline again
-tulips
-the thought of planting a garden
-leaves coming out
-warm breezes blowing the curtains
-not needing the central heating anymore
-not needing the air conditioning yet

that should do it
shouldn't it?

super powers

But most of it should be easily accessed.

 In order and labelled.

Before I get rid of it.

If I get rid of it.

One day.

pretty sure

Tomorrow

It is garbage day tomorrow.

But I wouldn't dare,

A talent you have.

Well, that is a loaded one.
I must be very talented.
Just ask me.
At what talent I have been afflicted with is the question.

tal·ent

ˈtalənt/

noun

1. 1.

   natural aptitude or skill.

   "he possesses more talent than any other player"

   
   
2. 2.

   a former weight and unit of currency, used especially by the ancient Romans and Greeks.

But it looks like - according to noun definition # 2 

that I might not be talented

I am not former

I am not weight

I am not a unit of currency.

And I am pretty sure I have not been used by Romans or Greeks,

ancient or otherwise.

Guess I am out of luck.

gratitude week 13

a challenge you have overcome.

That is a tough one.

Suppose I could cheat and say that
writing a blog piece about a challenge
was the challenge
and I overcame it
by writing that writing a blog piece
about a challenge
is challenging.

Phew.
I am grateful that one is done.

Bwah - hah - hah
