Poignant

There were so many inspirational quotes from which to choose, and I actually had written a rather thoughtful and poignant post for yesterday -New Year’s Day. I forgot to post it!

Obviously, it’s too late. Everyone has made a resolution, or has had a thoughtful day of considering plans for the new year, right? I managed to work on a jigsaw puzzle most of the day, sorting various shades of blue pieces. Apparently, when there is a puzzle in the room, there is clear and present danger of accomplishing little else.

My biggest plan for yesterday was to nap – replenishing the sleep I did not receive on New Year’s Eve, due to the leftover stash of Fourth-of-July fireworks my neighbors exploded. This could explain the non-posted post. It was a rather loud celebration, and I love a good show as much as anyone, but I wish they could have gone all-out on East Coast time.

I will say, this was the one nugget I held onto all day, from a favorite poet. It seems to be enough for now. Pretty simple, yet full of hope.

And because it’s just fun.

Happy birthday, “Paroline.”
