We went to a Fleetwood Mac cover band concert on our island. I took a ton of pics and videos. I wore a long, floor length yellow dress, my gorgeous sandals with painted leather flowers, a belt and big jewelry that sounded like I was the lead horse pulling a Christmas sleigh. Oh, and a hat. It wasn’t “ too hot” about 90 degrees, but I stripped everything off but the dress and the jewelry. Pulled up the dress up the my thighs and felt very 70’s indeed!! Barefoot dancing in a park.
Peaceful.
But! I had a 32 ounce coffee and couldn’t stop talking until 2am which was when it was kindly suggested that I put my noise canceling Air Pods in and watch something calming. My husband doesn’t wear a cape but he was a hero. Poor guy. I watched a True Crime doc, obviously.
Sunday was the anniversary of my mother’s death. My brain is so conflicted. Anyway, it’s been TWENTY FOUR YEARS! That means that I could have been born and lived my whole life again including meeting my husband !! WTF! That’s crazy!!
She died the day after 9/9/99. Most people probably don’t remember but that was the day the whole Y2K shit was supposed to start. It was going to freak the computers out. We were glued to the tv. We took the girls to the hospital after their gymnastics class ( om was 4 and YM was 18 months. Om kept jumping around in her leotard, putting her hands in the air and yelling “ Big Finish!” She was cute back then… Sometimes. My mom was all excited to hear if the world had stopped even a little. Nope.
Then she died and my world stopped.
ANYWAY!!!
It’s going to be rainy and into the 80’s this week. Thank the Lord! Fuck me. I was at my breaking point!!
We have our lease to re-sign….. Will we? Not sure yet. I do love it here.
Living on a Prayer,
Tracy
