Spring is on the ground

on our last trip to the cabin the week after my surgery, nuts, believe me i know!  anyway, my cousin pointed this out to and i was in awe ..... it reminds me of the searches in the highlight magazines we got as kids.  we were living high on the hog when we got a years subscription!!!! 

anyway, do you see what i see?  it is for sure spring on the ground!!!  now, if someone was awake, or it wasn't terribly rude to call someone before 8am or later, i could give you name of this egg ground laying bird ....

but it is and i can't!

oh well ... that's all i got today

have a great friday!!!

and then she just turned mean ...

mean ... i hate it.  i hate meanness and ugliness.  and then it happened to me.

my sister in law made me.  she and her spouse and kids moved from Georgia (Warner robins AFB) to the Dayton Ohio area (Wright Patterson AFB) to be closer to family.  we are the only family here.  so when i found out they were going to a neighbors house for Easter dinner (lil 69 year old widow), i tried to understand.

logically i did understand.  we have tons of days left to celebrate life.  right?

but remember i am in the handicapped recovery mode.  

and under a doctors care.

and terribly lonely A LOT.

so at 11:30 pm last night, while my wonderful, loving, understanding husband slept on the other couch, i sent her a text saying 'you hurt my heart'.  and some blah  blah blah

you know, you cant get those things back after you send.  regret hit at 3:30am.  ughhhh!!!!!!!!!!

it was selfish and just a pity party.  i admitted this evening it was just mean.

unknowingly to me, they had already planned a surprise dinner for us this evening ... salad, shrimp scampi, fresh bread and brownies.

we had such a lovely evening. 

and they still love me, even after the text.

the moral of this, family is great at forgiveness

AND

think before you hit send!!!!!!!  OR

you may do something mean you can't take back!
