Blustery my bum! It's WINDY!

Ok... most people at 4:08am would be sound asleep. Happily so. I have a new client intake at 10:00am.... but can I sleep? Nooooo! Maarten can. I sometimes would like to go into the bedroom and pinch him. How does he do it?

It is so windy here in the OC. Santa Ana Winds windy. Blustery Day your Mama windy. Some of these gusts rattle the windows. Trash cans fly about and wack into our garage (which happens to be right by our bedroom). The trees are whooooshing and sshhhsshhhshhhing. The windchims are getting a major workout.

Not your typical break in the day. day being the key word that is out of place here. Mmmmm just ate a Milkdud. Sustenance. It takes a special kind of nutrients to support one who is WIDE AWAKE and wishes she was sound asleep....floating on a wee cloud in laa laa land. Milkdud. Warm and snug... like a bug... cuddled up next to her man. You know the one that is sound alseep.

Let's poetize:

Oh I wish I was asleep.
Deep
asleep
I would dream
I would snore
I would see the stars no more

My mind would rest
the chatter put away
milkdud...mmm
I'd do my best
to let the Zzzz's play!

Oh to sleep
Not a peep
Nor a sound
no counting sheep

The kind of pleasure a deliciously chewy Milkdud provides....

hmmmmmm yummy. Distracting though when one is poetizing on her most important blog.
concentrate.

I can't sleep
The wind is high
The sky is clear
My feet are cold
My nose is ice

I really am a clever poet... just not now. Now my mind is somewhat annoyed with the weather. I love "oh bother pooh blustery DAYS".... it's when they cut into my nights that I get insomniacle.

So...if nothing else I may have just created two new superbly fantastic words: poetize and insomniacle.

One may philosiphize that that is the whole reason the wind is being so windy tonight. Word creation.

Well....being as wide awake as I am I could go on typing nonsensicle written doodles for quite awhile. However... the Milkduds and I will perphaps go watch some tv.

squiggle squiggle blot gleep.... poetizing out.

Glad January is HERE!

Ok, I don't know about the rest of you...

I am THRILLED to see the back of December 2005!

One bad moment after another including driving home from Christmas in Show Low Arizona with the flu! Not alot of bathrooms on that route through the desert!

My suggestion: Don't have the flu if you're far from a loo!

So January is here and Maarten and I are outlining our goals for the first quarter. Today was actually a big deal for us.

Maarty had is final interview and test for US citizenship. Dual of course. None the less it went well. He got 100% on the test. He studied quite a bit. Good thing too... how many of you know who said, Give me liberty or give me death? Patrick Henry of course. Luckily I had drilled him on that question the night before and he remembered it.

A lot of things that we had originally planned for this year are now on hold. We have decided to make some major shifts in the direction we are going and we believe the change in direction will offer some new and exciting options for us. Stay tuned to see what turns up!

And a special note to my sweetest friend Donnie. I send you love always and hugs forever. I'm so so sorry about Miss Mint and her tragic fall from the 8th floor balcony. She was a beautiful kitty and I can only hope she is reigning in Katnip Heaven as only she can.

Heres to a wonderful joyous and fun 2006 to all we know and all we don't.
