What one thing are you really glad you did yesterday?

I’m really glad I called my mother. It’s hard for us to schedule time to talk. I always think of calling her when she’s already gone to bed.

Are you generally focused on today or tomorrow?

I’m always focused on the day at hand. I’m always trying to be in the present moment.

Would you want to have a guardian angel/mentor? What would they tell you right now?

I think I do have guardian angels/spirit guides, and I definitely have some wise friends and family.
A lot lately, I’ve been thinking of things my friend Tori would say to me if she were still here. I’d complain and fret and she’d say common sense, reassuring things to me, and I’d know she’d be right and I’d say, “But…” and she would cut me off, “Wowo, it’s like this…” and then she’d say just the right thing to make me feel better. I like that she can still do that inside my own head, but I miss her saying it.

Would you rather live in a cave house or a dome house made out of glass?

Terrible choice. It’s the word cave that gets me. I no way want to live in a glass house. Imagine how hot, how exposed…Would I just wear sunscreen all day?!? Good Gravy, how thirsty would I be?!? But then, caves cause me panic. How about a basement apartment with several exits? That’s about as close as I’d get to a cave. Unless, maybe, it was one of those caves with the one big opening, but then how do you keep the children and animals in? What’s to stop coyotes and ne’er do wells from coming in? Is there wifi in caves? I dunno. It’s good I have a house!

Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

This last week, I am grateful for my husband who has taken such excellent care of me. I’m also glad Moo’s regular bus driver returned today, as did her bus, AND on time. I’m glad the furnace kept running.
This week coming up brings me no expectations.

    I am glad I called my sisters. Usually we talk once per year. I stay focused on the right now. When I was younger even while planning my next moves I stayed in the present. I know I have a guardian angel. He saved my life at least once. I am with you on the cave question. It’s plain silly. I will stay where I am.

    I’m with you on the cave vs. the glass house. Neither is appealing, but if I could put tinted glass up where no one could see in, then I guess I’d go with that. And hope for cloud coverage…

    I called my daughter yesterday, just as they were sitting down to a meal. I’m like that mother on the commercial who always calls at the wrong time. She called me back, we always talk for almost an hour. I often say we should call more often to keep it shorter. I usually end up with throat lozenges. 😛

    Whereas I would fill a glass house with a hundred plants and live in a perpetual garden. I would have year-round flowers and could pretend snow was imaginary and winter a myth to frighten children with.

    I’m glad our new pizza oven didn’t burn the house as it threatened to!

    Quotes from my spirit animal:

    The cave or glass house would be a problem for me. I’d need much more information. No WiFi? no cave.

    Cave or glass? That is an awful choice. I choose neither. Maybe a house that is half and half. That might be ok with me.

    A glass house? Ew. A cave would kinda be all hobbit hole like, I’d be down for that.
