    Hello, Hi-ho

    Definitely a late post, and definitely a late drop my apologies.

    Welp, who can say they enjoy the doom-scrolling. Yeah it gives us something to do, something to fret over, find concern with, wanting to address the urgency to another…but how many of us go to the streaming platforms instead and absolve those worries and the daunting damnation we see brewing everywhere?

    So… I’m taking every moment that I can to enjoy the little things. Whether that mean a movie with my family 15 minutes of painting 10 minutes of a show 30 minutes of a song or music or what have you I’m going to enjoy because life’s too f****** short right?

    Today my wife and I decided hell yeah we love each other, hell yeah we appreciate one another, why not let us go have some fun and we went to Red Lobster with our son. I get it doesn’t come off like somewhere fancy, to some it is to some it isn’t to my wife and i, if it’s somewhere where we can have our son the nonverbal kid with autism who doesn’t pick on cues depending on the circumstances, you bet your damn ass Red lobster was the place for us.  We met some pretty cool people at Red lobster as a matter of fact, we enjoyed ourselves and what with tax season on its way I think we’re going to be doing this a little bit more often. Plus I have a feeling life is going to be turning around on the brighter side and I don’t think I’m shying away from that.

    Anyhow it’s late I got to edit for the next day and try to get an early jump on my Sunday editing for that drop so I’m out tonight.

    C’est la vie

    Good night and good morning, good morning and good night.

    Thank you all for continuing to read liking and hopefully jumping in on following.

    Did you know it’s the 85th anniversary for The Wizard of Oz?

    Since I met my wife and her daughter at age four, it’s been a known and respected film for the three of us. Especially for our child, who was enamored by Glenda, the witch of the North , loved Toto, and dressed up as Dorothy numerous times for Halloween. It brings thoughts of time, the reminder of grays on my beard, wrinkles around my eyes and the young adult I’m watching grow.

    We enjoyed a wonderful trip to the XD theater available at our local Cinemark theater and embellished with delicious theatre treats and meals.

    I likely overstepped and bought more than should have been but the complaints were joyous and more observations of reverie than anything else. Of course we were being cascaded by the familiar and near homely touches of what’s brought us together since our beginning. The four of us, my wife, myself, and our two children engorged themselves on popcorn, candies, tenders, fries and slurpees.

    While enjoying the festivities of the 85the anniversary we sang and cherished the grace of Dorothy, the humor of the three, the Tinman, the Scarecrow, and the Lion. We chuckled at the jokes though repeated and known, on the enormous screen, we were all transported to the time of then, embracing the lapse of time and the knowing that we were time traveling in a sense of the excitement, the exuberance of energy and laughter that could be felt hanging in the air. We all gazed at the brightness, smiled and cheered with the Oz festivities and the Changing colors of the horse, the operatics of the Lion, and those damn ruby slippers.

    What made it worth of life was the being present and embracing every breath, being able to shine with my family and be proud, happy if for a moment. And that moment sits in deep, resolute and rings.

    A good day. A worthy day. And I think of what I’ve written, if I could make one person’s life worth that glee, then knowing this brings me a wonderful joy of light and how we can be that, we can bring light and be light.

    I will be light.

    Goodnight and Good morning, good morning and Goodnight. Enjoy and may light fin it’s way to your heart today and the next and on.
