Bucket Lists

I have made it back to the wonderful glorious cabin. I am so excited to be here! You might say a wild hair just jumped up and bit me on the....well you know exactly what I am trying to say here.
Being a lady, I can not say exactly what I would like. On the other hand, there are those of you who know I would just bust out and say exactly what I would love to say! Who cares! I am in the MOUNTAINS!

I have been examining my bucket list. I have come to the conclusion...what in the world is a bucket list any way? It sounds wonderful. Great movie. But isn't it just another way for us to re-evaluate our life and decide it has come up short in some form or fashion? Therefore, today, I have decided, NO BUCKET LIST FOR ME. My bucket list is that I am not looking back any more to re-evaluate my life and decide where, how many times, how much etc. did I mess up, miss out and basically ruin my life. I am settlin in folks. As one friend used to say, take a deep seat...could be a bumpy ride.

Did anyone notice the moon these last two nights? My goodness - what a moon it was! I would say it was like having a flash light on steroids. I don't really know how the air gets so clean up here - but it is amazingly crisp - clean and everything sparkles. When you get this moonshine on top of all this cleanliness (well let's say God just dipped everything in Clorox up here) it just is breathless. I woke yesterday early to a light coming through my window. Of course I thought...Here it comes....I am going to the light....That's right...forget the bucket list for sure now! But it was the moon setting. Honestly I thought someone was shining a light in my window. Nothing really compares.

I have noticed that my shoulders are dropping a notch each side the longer I am here. Instead of wearing my shoulders as earrings-them being so tight they are finally relaxing! I have only been here a couple of days now. It is winter here. -2 the morning I drove in. I have snow in my yard, steam on the stream, and a dead pellet stove. Even that does not upset one. It is Colorado time!

I know before long the sun will be creeping over the mountain and he will be stretching his long fingers into the day. For some reason, the days take a really long time to wake up. Guess when you have been doing everything in your power to stay warm and finally have gotten there waking is the last thing you want to do! Sweet Olive would agree with that! I sent her out this morning to make her announcements, such a weak show. All she wanted was to get back in to her hopefully warm spot on the bed and to her wonderful dream.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
