Happy Birthday To Me!

Yes, that day has come. It's here. And it's a good day.

It's raining and cool, which is a nice break from the humidity.

I love heat. I'm not on speaking terms with humidity.

Though I'll be happy when the rain stops and the weather warms up.

Because rain makes me nauseous.

(Thank you, Fibromyalgia. You're the gift that keeps on giving.)

Today is a special day, because I was born on this day, of course.

But it's also an everyday.

It's an everyday in that I still have chores.

Laundry never ever goes away.

Never on vacation.

Certainly never on an everyday.

Even if it's a special everyday.

And especially if there's a little boy and a chocolate frosted cake involved.

I still experiment.

Yes, that's a rainbow cake. The first of many, I'm sure.

I still procrastinate.

And I still play. With light. With pictures.

And did I say I experiment? Yeah, I thought so.

Didn't I say it was raining? Yeah, the storm is really coming in.

It's swirling around, the clouds moving across the sky with light speed.

And the winds howling. My favorite part of a storm, truth be told.

After all, if it's going to storm, it might as well go all out.

And the special everyday things will continue... eating cake, cleaning up, cuddling, watching the storm out my window, and listening to the sounds of play.

My beautiful everyday.
