Today I had watermelon.
Today Allen fixed my supper. He cut chicken breasts into strips, breaded the strips and fried them. They were spicy and good. He stir fried vegetables and warmed spinach pie left over from yesterday. For dessert I had watermelon.

Dreaming
About Me
- Theresa Williams
- Northwest Ohio, United States
- "I was no better than dust, yet you cannot replace me. . . Take the soft dust in your hand--does it stir: does it sing? Has it lips and a heart? Does it open its eyes to the sun? Does it run, does it dream, does it burn with a secret, or tremble In terror of death? Or ache with tremendous decisions?. . ." --Conrad Aiken

Fave Painting: Eden
Fave Painting: The Three Ages of Man and Death
by Albrecht Dürer
From the First Chapter
The Secret of Hurricanes : That article in the Waterville Scout said it was Shake- spearean, all that fatalism that guides the Kennedys' lives. The likelihood of untimely death. Recently, another one died in his prime, John-John in an airplane. Not long before that, Bobby's boy. While playing football at high speeds on snow skis. Those Kennedys take some crazy chances. I prefer my own easy ways. Which isn't to say my life hasn't been Shake-spearean. By the time I was sixteen, my life was like the darkened stage at the end of Hamlet or Macbeth. All littered with corpses and treachery.

OK, I know the point is a release from comments, but I must say ... I LOVE WATERMELON! It makes me think of summer evenings in my grandma's side yard, trying to hit things with the seeds we spit--trees, cans, patches of grass.
Dear Theresa, I've been away from my blog for a few weeks, and have no idea whether you have already been nominated for a Reflective Blogger award, but I would like to nominate you. Your blog inspires me - and even your most recent post just shows - your experimental approach to how this works is wonderful to witness. I love the gems of wisdom you have to offer and want to say Thank You. The post is long, but the relevant piece is the last section, so you can scroll down if you like to see what it's about.
