It only took me four days to fail the post every day thing. Ah well. These things happen.
I didn't get home from the Candy Dance until 6pm, then it was cook, eat, clean, collapse. The temperatures were in the mid to high 90's and the heat sucked all the life from me.
We had a fine time of it though. My friend K picked me up at 10 and it took us two hours to get there (we sat in traffic for close to an hour, it was that busy). We were okay with that though, as we haven't had an opportunity to yack in quite awhile. This gave us the perfect chance. Although the Candy Dance started as a fund raiser for the little town of Genoa (pronounce that Jen-O-ah), it's now a big craft fair. The fund raising part is still the sale of the homemade candy and the local food booths.
The important part is what I purchased. The following:
1. A "spoon" cuff for my friend K in Alaska. She tried to find one here at the Rib cookoff but was disappointed. I was so excited when I found it.
2. A 1961 dime charm. Sterling silver dime. For my charm bracelet.
3. Two leather cuff bracelets for the Princelings.
4. CANDY! Almond Bark, English Toffee, Peanut Brittle and Fudge (no nuts). Nom!
Today was sleep in, do laundry, pick up stuff, make dinner, make tomorrow's dinner, visit mom, run errands. Mom is good. Still big with the paranoia, the losing of things in her little apartment. Still doesn't want me to throw anything away. I managed to pry a newspaper from July 25 off her table and took it with me to recycle. But she's safe and healthy. All is good.
I'm going to watch "Sister Wives" and then go to bed. Tomorrow is gonna be a heck of a day.
Love isn't blind, it isn't deaf, it isn't mute. Love is loud and messy and wonderful. Love makes you get up at 6am to make a hot meal for your children. Love is giving someone else the "pretty fish". That is when you cook fish and the first one you pull from the pan is messy, but the second one comes out perfectly. His Lordship always gets the "pretty fish".
Love isn't 50/50 or 60/40 or even 70/30. Love is 100% all the time. Love is saying, "Of course!" even though you really don't want to. Love is being able to fall asleep on your mate's chest and drool.
Love is snuggling on the couch. Love is arguing over when your 17 year old's curfew. Love is being a volunteer for your kids activities. Love is letting the dog get a haircut before you do.
Love is being able to sit in the car for 8 hours and not have awkward silences, but rather comfortable silences. Love is wanting to be with that person in the car for another 8 hours.
You have to work at love, you have to keep it alive. But it is so very worth it.
