Glad this winter is almost over.

 The Guest House

" This being human is a guest

house. Every morning a new arrival:

A joy, a depression, a meanness,

some momentary awareness comes

as an unexpected visitor. Welcome

and entertain them all!

Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,

who violently sweep your house

empty of its furniture, still treat

each guest honorably. He may be

clearing you out for some new

delight. The dark thought, the

shame, the malice, meet them at

the door laughing and invite

them in."

The yearly sister/family reunion came and went without a glitch and i got bit by a bat..

picking up sticks, twigs, leafy branches off of the already slippery stones in front of my place I suddenly felt a sharp stinging on one finger and low and behold I was in an eye lock with a bat, flat on it's back! Ran inside to get phone and when I got back out there, it was gone. And no, I didn't go get a shot. I'm old. If I die, I die. luckily I didn't go into convulsions. My ex brother-in-law's nephew died in Texas at the age of 10 or 11 after a bat scratched him. I think that happened in the late 90's. He was an only child. Was in a coma for 3 days before he passed. 

Well I'm at work so I better get to it.
