Is anybody else excited that Spring is finally here? My pool peeps and I have been doing the countdown for months. I love Winter and all the fun it brings, but this year we experienced cold with not a lot of snow. For me, if I'm going to freeze my booty off, at least throw this Princess some flipping snow. Make it worth my while, but oh noooo, we only got a sprinkling of snow flurries this year and I say "bah humbug!"......
Being in the lovely South, Spring brings in the bestest allergens ever, said no one. I take an antihistamine daily for my fur, dust, dander, grass, hickory and anything else you want to throw in there allergies, but some of my friends don't need that medication year round and some got caught with snuffy noses or runny noses or just plain sinus issues. All of which, are some fun things to deal with.
Spring is a renewing of the trees, flowers, animal babies and our sunny disposition for the pool/lake/beach. My group and I are already planning an outing. We are going to have sun, fun, food, good times maybe an adult beverage for those who drink and great belly laughs. Our pool days are well thought out events. The pool gets credit for bringing us all together again on the weekends. We can catch up, for those who have not seen each other since the warmer weather, and we can sit on decks and enjoy the views, the convo's and the people watching. Sometimes I'm sure, we are the entertainment for others especially when Matthew gets going on some tirade and then Thrilla, the big, quiet one, finally has enough and tells Matthew to just 'shut the hell up!' Hee hee.
Just that image is making me smile and laugh because you listen and shake your heads in disbelief of what is being said or you agree and take it to another level all the while enjoying a cold one and the pool.
That's what Spring is to me....Happy Easter everyone...Kiss Kiss Hug Hug...Muah

Musings part deux
Do you notice that as you age you either are more tolerant or less tolerant of things in general? Let me explain. When I was younger, I could go from 0-50 in less than a minute in anger. I had no patience and even then, I had no tolerance for dumb arse drivers, as you know, that hasn't and probably will never change. Once my beloveds were born I had so much patience, and when I say 'so much' when you had none to begin with "so much" is a lot. I didn't like their dickhead friends, but I faked it. There are still very few children I do like much less adore, so if yours is one, you should feel honored, and I'm not joking, I'm dead serious.
Now that I'm 900+ years I really have no tolerance for stupidity, rudeness, back stabbing, fire starters, pot stirrers, etc. Once I find out that's what you are, or have been doing, ciao. I may not delete you from FB, but I won't be asking to hang with you either. If we were doing things and we aren't now, look inward.
I was having issues with energy, depression and other lovely ailments, but now that I am back to being me, I really do not want to spend time with people who annoy me, or do nothing but brag about themselves, or people who really, don't want to be true friends. That's cool! I have never been one who could fake my feelings one way or the other, and I still can't/don't/won't. As Dana Carvey would say when he imitated Pres Bush Sr, "Not gonna do it!" and you know why? Because I don't have to. Why would any of us keep people who are toxic, or backstabbing or just plain and simple, do not have our best interests at heart? There is no reason, quite honestly. It's not a healthy way to live and it's exhausting to pretend. Bleck.
When you meet me, you can see that the person you read on FB is the very same person standing in front of you. I have no filter, and I don't lie AND I'm not fake. I may spill about my personal life after an adult beverage or 4, but I will never spill your secrets. What you see is literally, what you are getting. Sarcastic, funny, protective, supportive, human and if I count you in my "inner circle" you should feel blessed because it does take a lot to get in there. Lately, it hasn't taken much to be removed from there either.
Bottom line kids, life is too short to not be happy and listen to your own inner monologue. Who knows you better than you? No one, just be opened to listening and you will find your happy.
