Wake the sun

I love the calm that fills early mornings. I wake up, feed the cat, and put on some coffee. I contemplate what the day will bring. I scan my e-mails and Facebook page to see what may or may not have happened while I was in dreamland. I brush my teeth in time to the music in my head.

By 10:30 those moments of morning perfection are little more than a memory -- At this hour, everyone is awake and running at breakneck speed. Sadly, I am too. The daily grind has begun with a vengeance.

Maybe next year

Dear Blog,

I'm sorry I let you die. The year 2009 was like a marathon, and as I stumbled toward the finish line, I was unable to muster enough energy to keep you updated. Please don't blame yourself.

Sincerely yours,
Me
