It is a warm sunny day here in New Orleans – N got me out of bed at 6:15 and so we scrambled to get down for playdate and she and I and Arlene and Renny had a wonderful walk around the bayou. And then I ran uptown to pick out tiles and suddenly felt totally different about being where I am in this point in time – I felt great – here I was picking out the tile myself – not paralyzed by a design decision that I normally would have left to my talented husband to do for me. I drove behind a pick up truck while on the way to the Office Depot and the guy’s license plate said IM HERS and his bumper sticker said in all caps I LOVE MY WIFE – made me smile. <\/p>\n
Thought about getting the damn violation sticker off the back of my windshield and having something painted on the back of my truck – maybe RED or LALA or something like that or maybe NEW ORLEANS. Or maybe even KATRINA YOU BITCH! <\/p>\n
Had a good talk with S who did a marathon Dr Phil night and came up with one gem to hold onto – “you are in love with who you wish him to be” – a keeper. <\/p>\n
L coming over for gumbo tonight and a lesson in Itunes and the digital world. <\/p>\n
All in all – one of those happy to be alive days and the first real day that feels like a beginning and not an end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
