You know how when your life seems kind of surreal, you can either laugh or cry? Well, I’m right there now, and I think I will laugh. That seems the better choice. I’m sitting in my “temporary housing” watching the wind blow and waiting for...
Yep, that's me today. A big mess of mixed up "muddleness". Ok, "muddleness" is not a word, but I kind of like how it sounds. I apologize to my Poetry Friday pals who were busy looking for this post on the Space City Scribes site....
