November 17

Well what do you know? We're blessed with another brisk beautiful morning. 42 degrees and dropping, with a huge sun peeking thru the trees on yon side of the cove as it fights a probable losing battle with the clouds in it's attempt to dominate the sky.

A good nights sleep behind us that always allows you and your conscience to meld and repair most problems of the days past leaving you feeling clean and with a renewed vigor for the life ahead with all of it's cracks and crevices. Oh yeah, don't want to forget the crooks and cons.

Tho, we both are blessed with warm hearts our external areas can get cold. I'm the carrier of some excessive external areas, you know, like my arms, legs,ears, nose and my pointy little head, the holder for my nose and ears and my midsection. I can stand about three times the cold that Glenda can because of my built on heater. You know fat generates quite a bit of heat. Sometimes just hearing another mention that I might be carrying more than my share heats me instantly. Say, I may be a sensitive person after all.

I think I like this time of year because as a youngster I suffered from hay fever so bad that until the first frost I spent most of my days laying on the couch with a wet wash rag across my face. After the frost encouraged the ragweed's and such to give it up, out the door I went.

Glenda hates cold with a passion so she stays in while I go out of which I think my absence helps generate a little much needed fondness.

Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again. ~Og Mandino
