Reality

Boy, it has hit me like a ton of bricks. Gettting back to reality isn't too much fun! I sure do miss Maui.

I have been powering the laundry, grocery shopping, yardwork, cleaning, working out, blogging, pictures, letters, and cooking. I will be happy to get back into my routine. My body is confused and my mind is overwhelmed.

My 4:45 a.m. wake-up calls have been strenuous - I know it's for my own good but my mind is telling me otherwise. Also, battling my cold hasn't helped.

Thanks for listening to me gripe! Next week will be better and I will have more pleasant posts.

In closing I would like to leave you with this (I love the version by IZ -a hawaiian singer; I also was fortunate enough to capture the above rainbow shot during our Maui trip).

Somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high,

There's a land that I heard of

Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow

Skies are blue,

And the dreams that you dare to dream

Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far

Behind me.

Where troubles melt like lemon drops

Away above the chimney tops

That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow

Bluebirds fly.

Birds fly over the rainbow.

Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow

Why, oh why can't I?

Caio,

V
