Or, simplicity in contentful things. You be the judge.
The first day of 2009 is over.
I walked to the nearby park-with-manmade-lake - which I have only driven past, up until this point - and walked through the arboretum and looked at the ice that is still over the top of said manmade lake. I have taken out my garbage and recycling. The recycling bag doesn’t have any holes in it yet, so it’s back in my bin for at least one more go-round. (As long as it can keep from developing holes, it gets to keep its job as my Recycling Bin Liner.) I’ve run some errands, gotten more cat treats, deposited some checks, bought a few supplies and two miniature splurges, and am getting ready to go read my book for a few hours before I sleep. I’ve got my music on the speakers (Vas, Sunyata), a mug of cocoa by my left side, and a cat sitting on my right wrist. This is apparently his inimitable way of saying, “Are you there, Mom? It’s me, Ursa.” Earlier while I was netsurfing he had reached out, put one paw on my collarbone, and stuck his head into my armpit…just in case I wasn’t aware that a cat was nearby. Apparently, it was Oh Cuddle Thirty.
Here’s to a generally positive 2009.
