Random Thoughts

front porch June 2011

1. When given a choice, wild kittens prefer to drink from a rain puddle than from a clean dish of filtered water.
2. I've survived two weeks of summer vacation! 10 weeks to go.
3. When you have to go to the bathroom really, really bad while driving in your car, a down pouring of rain does not help the situation. Just sayin'. ha.
4. Kisses from your children are wonderful, at any age, especially unsolicited ones.
5. When your autistic child finds leftover fried chicken in the frig and stuffs a piece in his mouth, crunching bones and all, refusing to spit it out no matter how much you plead, the only thing left to do is to pray that he won't get any internal punctures and it will all pass through safely. This would be Alex, btw, and it's been a few days, so I guess he will live! Geesh!
6. Everyone in this family likes their bananas still slightly green. Once they get little brown freckles on the skin, we avoid them like the plague. Too bad we don't have at least one person that likes them really ripe!
7. If you drink a big cup of coffee at 8:00 PM you will be awake and staring at the ceiling at 2:00 AM!
8. A rain shower every other day means you don't have to water the veggie garden with a hose! Nice.
9. It's really fun to see seeds break through the soil that you've planted yourself. I have 5 types of lettuce sprouting. Some for Nugget, some for us. :)
10. It's lovely to see the sun shining through raindrops and see the ROYGBIV of the rainbow.
