Ditto

Between one thing and another, I couldn’t sleep last night.

Due to the ongoing construction in my attic and upstairs bathroom, I’m ensconced in the guest bedroom, so there is no TV to watch when sleepless hours tick by.  I tried to download a book from Kindle and somehow the internet gods snafu-ed me.  Scrolling aimlessly through Facebook while checking the Royals game progress, I happened upon a post from my friend Pat Reynolds. . . and a radiant smile must have broken across my face because I felt my mood lighten clear to my toes.

“Dreary ugly day,” she wrote. “At least lunch with a good friend brightened it up a bit.”

Ditto, Pat.  Ditto.

And here’s a Robert Frost poem for you all:

Dust of Snow
BY ROBERT FROST

The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree

Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

Have an awesome Wednesday, everyone!  I stayed awake too late last night, but I’m not complaining!

Sign me —

Pat’s friend

    Pat, I followed it online. I was awake until the end except I did dose in that 10th inning goose-egg period. I was trying to rest so I was in bed. I have a TV in my room upstairs but all that is draped with plastic so I have to sleep downstairs! I didn’t want to get up and go in the living room so I just followed the game’s progress at MLB.com!!!

    And on FB, of course!!!

    GO ROYALS!
