Up early.
Long bath.
A bit of e-mail.
Grabbed the camera.
Out the door quickly and quietly.
The sunshine felt so good after all this doggone rain. The sidewalks were packed with NYCers in their summer best, moi included in my new super cute grey capris with hot pink top and matching Crocs.
My first stop was Barnes & Nobles where I had my choice of tables in the cafe – a rare treat.
I sipped iced chai, flipped through magazines, and people watched.
The idiot at the next table was loudly warning his younger sister against eating too much. ‘You will lose all your beauty,’ he promised.
The fact that several of the women around him were size 16 plus and could hear him was of no concern.
My hand itched for a heavy blunt object, but there would be too many witnesses.
I read a bit more, then headed to the wilds of Central Park.
Right now I’m having dinner in a little Malaysian place. They make a coconut curry soup that’s heaven in a bowl.
Dear daughter remains cancer-free. She volunteers with the youth in her church, and is out raising funds for various good works. Both her and her minister husband remain amazingly tolerant of her raised Catholic mom who has been Hindu for quite a few years now.
And of course, she will be my personal hero till my last breath and beyond.
May you be absolutely immersed in love.
Good Morning~ Great post. I’m sure that guy probably meant well but, I can’t imagine giving someone that kind of advice. I hope she half listened to him. I’m so pleased that your daughter is cancer free. That’s the best news a mother could here… ever. Thanks for sharing a bit of your day with me. Have a great day.
love how you put your thoughts together, certainly that idiot guy deserves a blow to the head or something that will shut him up, I hope you are enjoying your week, though as I post this, it’s monday…
Yay for your daughter & may she have continued success in her fight against cancer. <3
