My Two Lists…

“Some of the things that make me feel sad” list.

Pine trees, frightened children, hurt animals, winter, sunset, really old people, nursing homes, empty fruit stands, unrequited love, neglected historic buildings, things made in the 1950s and 1960s, some Country songs, cemeteries, rusted out pickups, partisan politics, funeral homes, grumpy people, knowing I won’t live long enough to visit Venus…


“A few of the things that make me feel happy” list.

My son, my grandchildren, having a caring and funny partner, knowing I have a project to do, friends, spring, fresh cantaloupe, John Butler Trio, Benny Hill theme ringtone, email and Facebook, sunrise, fresh coffee, my recliner, a new scifi book to read, comfortable shoes that are cool looking too, my Chihuahua, fascinating conversations, travel, mountains, New York City, a great deli sandwich, sitting on my porch when it rains, the way a freesia flower smells, hummingbirds, clowns, unicorns, all things banana, Brit Coms and BBC, a good night’s sleep, recycling, taking a long hot bath…
