It just isn't *particularly* messy

 Good Morning, my Beautiful Friends!

 

After I post this, I'm going to start attacking the lawn. The grass is very thick and rather tall, so this process will most likely be start and go. Usually, I like to start in the front, with the bits that all of the neighbors can see, but this time I will need to start in the back, where things have gotten particularly messy. I'm not saying that the front yard isn't messy -- it is. It just isn't particularly messy when compared to the back yard.

 

After mowing and a shower, I should do laundry. But that might wait until tomorrow, because I definitely stayed up later than I should have last night. That decision will need to be put on hold.

 

I continue to feel strong in my sobriety, secure in my eating habits, and optimistic about changing my spending habits. I may feel tired right now, but I also feel that life is good. I am happy.

 

I hope you find something beautiful in your day, have a safe way of coping with the big kabooms of the fireworks**, and as always, thank you for being here.

 

**Our dog is terrified of them. We have learned that in Ted's case, the thundershirt doesn't help that much, so we usually just let him hide in the laundry room. The big show that the town puts on has a beginning and an end. We can cope with that. It's the lingering booms that continue through the night, since home fireworks are legal where I live. I loved fireworks as a kid, but now I kinda hate them.
