Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2007. While on our trip in Key West, we came across this park. They had a sculpture of a dinosaur, which intrigued us. It was literally made from found metal objects, which you may see if you look closely. What I love about this photo was it illustrated Mattie's interpretation of a dinosaur.
Quote of the day: Sorrow is how we learn to love. Your heart isn’t breaking. It hurts because it’s getting larger. The larger it gets, the more love it holds. ~ Rita Mae Brown
If tonight's quote is accurate, then my heart must be enormous! I go to bed each night in disbelief that this is my life and I wake up hoping for a different reality. Of course, as soon as I come to conscious, it is like my body is jolted awake. I truthfully do not know what compels me to get out of bed and do all that I do each day.
I am dragging today. I feel wiped out on every level. My dad is still struggling with congestion and slept most of the day away. A friend of mine came over today. I haven't seen her for quite some time. She came to offer support and of course I got talking about my life's situation. Some people may feel better after they talk. I am not one of them. Talking takes energy, energy I do not have to expend. Literally after my friend left today, I cleaned up plates and cups, folded laundry, and then went upstairs to get into my pajamas. It was only 3:30pm, but that was the state I was in.
If my parents weren't here, I would have gotten into bed and would have called it a day. But dinner needed to be made and things had to get done. So I continue on.
