Just when I thought I was going to die from lack of vitamin D…the sun came out.
Did it ever come out! And oh, it was so good.
I felt the healing powers almost immediately.
After a week of rain and lots of fog, it was welcome relief. I love rain and I especially love fog…I love to cozy up and read when it’s a rainy day like that…but days on end…it was starting to get to me.
We had a day of wonders yesterday. It got up to 60 degrees! It was heavenly! And we’ve had piles of snow still, but it melted yesterday. I see the ground, people! This is newsworthy. I’m not naive, I realize we’ll probably still get another snow before all is said and done, but this little sneak peek of Spring has got me all excited.
I’ve decided I’m not going to be scared of Outside this summer…getting Lyme’s Disease will do that to a girl. I’m shaking it off, I’ve just decided.
You’ll be happy to know I smooshed a bug with fervor this week. (Sorry, Ken.) But it was crawling on me~ my FACE and then my SCALP~ and I f-uh-reaked.
I also hesitated too long and did NOT go sit on the deck in the sun yesterday, but I’m working up my nerve…baby steps, baby steps.
Besides the paranoia, it seems all that’s left of the Lyme’s is an occasional itchiness where the bite was…isn’t that weird? It’s also very inconvenient, I might add. The location does not make it conducive to scratching any old time I want. The crazy bulls-eye target is LONG gone, but the itch remains.
Hmmm, that could preach right there.
A little of the mental loopy-ness has remained too, I daresay, but that can always come in handy here and there.
I need to be using that a little more, now that I think about it.
But back to Spring and my Embracing It…I’m going to go Outside this Summer…and enjoy it. So help me.
Would you like to know my Spring To-Do List?
* Do a massive CLEANING OUT THE GARAGE day. This is a must, like…yesterday.
* Do a massive GARAGE SALE…and you’d think it would be in the garage (see above), but nope, it’s gonna be in the barn….which brings me to…(see below)
* Do a massive CLEANING OUT THE BARN day.
* Do a massive CLEAN EVERY SQUARE INCH OF THE HOUSE day.
And last but not least…
* Soak in the sun and get “healfy”…(Indigo for healthy)…
You know, maybe I’ll just do the last one and call it a season.
