we had company this weekend which filled the house with laughter. and we bought special treats. one of my favorites is the baked cheese puffs that turn my fingers a florescent orange. they are wonderfully crunchy, colorful, and comforting. although i must admit, they don't have the greatest taste. but the 3 c's make up for it. i would not want them all the time; i would get tired of them, i am sure. but as something to anticipate on special occasions..... oh, baby!!
retirement is somewhat like the cheese puffs. anticipating something that will happen soon adds delight to my day. i like to think about it, imagine how it will be, and revving up for the event.
but that anticipation also adds energy to my day... today. it revs me up to "do" today with more gumption and spontaneity. making today special is like opening a bag of cheese puffs as if i had not tasted them for months.
