and the truth is;

no.

i just sat on the back hill with shooter for
a good while& the weather is perfect
and it really is a little hideaway back there.
so pretty and peaceful...but driving down
the street, you would never know it existed.
and it's just a stream, really.
but it's nice to be alone
[or with shooter when he's being very good]
with your thoughts and remember when's
and what could be's and what if's and
just plain old make believe.

and while i sat there one thing that crossed my mind was...
if i was prettier, or skinnier, or "better",
would it make this any better?
and the answer is
no, it wouldn't.



and now i feel good.
really good.

and now my boo is home and
i`m going to have dinner and cake
with him and joe pops.
