DAY FIVE - Part 2

Song of the day...  Ah, Nina Simone...



Lyrics, if you want to sing along...

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree you know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

I'm feeling good

DAY FOUR - Part 1

I know I'll be writing more today, but I had to sign in and say that today is starting better than last night ended.  After posting my DAY THREE entry, I decided I needed to get my attitude turned around and start thinking positively again.  I know something and somebody good WILL come my way.  And I know I just need to visualize it to manifest it.

The snow/ice messed up a date I had planned for last night, but aside from that I didn't even talk to him yesterday.  A single dad with custody of his children, I know and appreciate the amount of stuff he has to do on yet another unplanned snow day.  However, (hint hint), a little bit of contact goes a LOOOONG way with me.

Aunt Flushy was going to meet me in Cleveland Sunday night with a lot of G-ma's furniture (including a couch, dressers, and a REAL Queen sized bed, although my air mattress doesn't bother me), however with this weather those plans have been pushed back.  I don't know if I was looking more forward to the furniture or seeing family.  Honestly, I think it was the latter.  Hugs from family members mean so much, however I miss hugs that last for hours and feel like dancing even though we're standing still.

I've decided to focus on summer.  Forget this crappy winter.  Well, not all crappy, just the weather and breaking-up part.  I'm going to focus on the boys' Junior Baseball starting in April, and a pool membership in June.  I'm going to soak up some sun and smile.  Maybe that's what I need to visualize when I go to bed every night...  The upcoming sunshine and warm weather...
