I can dress myself

Random pictures from Lagoon in August.

We rode the train 2x. I felt like a small child and didn't mind a bit. Sometimes I feel like I am easy to entertain and it's easy to make me happy.

Giving Esmeralda a drink because she was thirsty.

I feel like after yesterday's post, I should at least mention that sometimes a fantasy is better than the reality and I recognize that I play into that a bit sometimes. Realize that there are other things which have contributed to my feeling a huge sense of loss in my life, but because this blog is being read by many, I want to spare some hard feelings if not all of them. It's easy to judge that which you see but hard to understand that which you cannot. Enough said, moving on.


I feel like I have some solid friendships which I have been building these past few months. I took an extra long lunch today and went to Smith's for a specific purpose- to purchase Corn Nuts! I love serving others and this was my chance, let me explain:
I work inside a hotel. There is a gentleman who sits in a booth all day collecting tickets and money for the parking garage. He has some kind of brain damage although I'm not quite sure what, how, or why. He is one of the nicest, light-spirited people you will meet. He is happy. I have known him for a year and a half. He has recently started passing me food telling me he wants me to be happy too. I cannot pass away a kind deed without an expression of gratitude. Today I found out Mike likes original Corn Nuts so I went to Smith's on my lunch break. The only aisle I needed to travel on and I ran into my friend Nic. That was a nice surprise to add to my day. I went back and left the Corn Nuts on Mike's desk since he was at lunch. I like doing nice things for people not because they are on my to do list but because service is good for my soul.


I have really been into soup lately. Last week I had 5 bowls of soup in 3 days. This week I've only had 1... but I wanted to get soup today, does that count? When I was a kid growing up in AZ, I would wear shorts in the winter and pants in the summer. I don't follow the norm very well.

"Save Me"
by Remy Zero

I feel my wings have broken in your hands
I feel the words unspoken inside
When they pull you under

And I would give you anything you want, no
You were all I wanted and all my dreams are fallin' down
Crawlin' 'round, 'round and 'round

Somebody, save me
Let your warm hands break right through me
Somebody, save me
I don't care how you do it

Just stay, stay, come on
I've been waiting for you

I see the world has folded in your heart
I feel the waves crash down inside
And they pull me under

And I would give you anything you want, no
You were all I wanted and all my dreams have fallen down
Crawlin' 'round, 'round and 'round

Somebody, save me
Let your warm hands break right through me
Somebody, save me
I don't care how you do it

Just stay, stay, come on
I've been waiting for you

Crawlin' 'round, 'round and 'round

Somebody save me
Let your warm hands break right through me
Somebody save me
I don't care how you do it

Just save me, save me
I've made this whole world shine for you
Just save me, save, come on
I'm still waiting for you

Ps Working out by myself isn't the funnest thing in the world but I do enjoy working out
