I’ve had several thoughts cross my mind lately that I wanted to write or share about and then I stop; thinking it may not be appropriate. Maybe I don’t want to share all of those things with the world. Maybe they are better left sitting on a shelf in my head or shared with a select few. After all, any old Joe can come along and read these words.

It has almost been two years and I am finally feeling a connection to the people in my life. Two years is long enough to work at it, keep trying, and wait. I am so thankful for the people that have somehow come into my life recently. Sometimes I’m sitting at a table with new friends, eating good food, drinking good wine, laughing, and wondering how I ended up there. I hover over the scene in my mind and wonder at how people come together. I find myself in that scene frequently in the last several months and enjoying every minute of it.

Also, everyone here has a ton of hostas in their flower beds.
