Optimism!

Maybe the Super Moon (whenever it is supposed to take place) has made me much more optimistic than I have reason to be, but I am more than ready to start the day and if I could hop, skip and jump, I would do it. I haven't had enough caffeine to warrant that kind of desire, so there must be another explanation for it. I feel like seizing the proverbial day and doing something wonderful with it, although my imagination falls short of what that might be.

 

Never mind, I won't let myself be bogged down by the details and just be glad that it is Saturday morning and that the birds are singing very merrily while they greet the early morning sun. There is always good enough reason to be happy about something when you are in a good mood. Whatever you overlooked before, suddenly becomes reason to be very cheerful.

 

The fact that the weather isn't all that great doesn't bother me one bit, because I like the fact that it is a bit cooler now. I hardly knew what to do with myself when it was so hot and I am certainly not a fan of temperatures that hover around 30 degrees Celsius. I welcome the rain that occasionally falls and the cool breeze that blows through the open windows and makes the apartment so pleasant to be in. I appreciate the fact that I get to wear clothes and that I don't have to strip down to the bare minimum. I have never been much of an exhibitionist.

 

The glass of cola light I am having now is hitting the spot and in my mind the carbonation is making me even more cheerful. Of course, a product like that is supposed to make me feel good. That's the very reason why it is sold. The fact that I drink two tall glasses of it every day is a novelty and a small indulgence on my part. I do like to fill my day with small pleasures.

 

I have a great hunkering to go outside and walk Tyke in spite of my sore knee and I think that's exactly what I will do.
