Mood: Cheery and Friendly
Inside my head today I had two tape players broadcasting conflicting messages (no I am not hearing voices...yet). Fortunately the one playing the cheerful banter was louder than the more negative loop. In the foreground was the beginnings of Christmas spirit and community. Seeing old friends this evening at the local Christmas Market was just lovely. Making plans for a couple of outings tomorrow also helped to keep the soul in the upright position.
In the background clutter of my thoughts today was the usual end of year distraction of dollars and cents with this year being particularly consuming. But a unexpected visit to the dentist this afternoon to repair a broken tooth did not help to soften that distraction. Oh, your nickels are already stretched like a hooker's spandex? Well, let's throw this little wrench into things just to shake it up a little. Always fun.
But, despite the hiccups that keep coming I have been plunging forward in rather good nature. What is up with that? It seems that when we are hovering near the edge of that horrible abyss, I'm not hardly fazed. But, have a package that I'm expecting not arrive in timely fashion or have a holiday unfold as something short of a Norman Rockwell painting and I'm huddled in the corner in the fetal position, one bone-curdling sob from an I-Love-Me jacket.
I may be a diva.
Someone get me a glass of water. And don't forget the lemon wedge.
