In My Mind The Good Will Aways Outweigh The Bad

For the life of me I don't know what to write about tonight. So let's do a stream of consciousness...

I ranted about the unfairness and the reasons to quit smoking for the past several days and want to give that a rest for awhile. Trust me, I will revisit this subject again. She writes as she chews and chews on the Nicolette. Its getting better, but at times I need to chew and chew.

I am saddened that the Germany massacre of schoolchildren by another child has occurred. It is only about an hour and a half away from where I live. I had hoped that a Columbine wouldn't happen again.

I am also saddened that a minister, in a local area church, was murdered while preaching his Sunday sermon. Local in that this is two towns over from my home in the States, in Illinois.

I miss Spousal Unit. He has been gone all week. He is coming home tomorrow morning and I am glad. I plan on cooking him a nice meal and putting him to bed. He'll be really tired and I anticipate that it will take several days for him to re-adjust to the time change.

On a bright note, I met up with one of the gals I correspond with on a local chat board today. We met to go walking for much needed exercise. The high blood pressure is my reason to restart my exercise program and a long visit to the States and take off gained Stateside pounds was hers.

During the walk, I was able to witness that Spring is coming. We walked a full circuit around the Ohmbachsee. It is the largest lake here in the Pfaltz. It took us 45 minutes, walking briskly, to complete the lap. I only stopped twice to take pictures, actually it was a much needed excuse to allow these aging hips and legs a little rest.

We made a date to meet again on Monday, same Bat time, same Bat channel.

I bought a composter several weeks ago and I took kitchen scraps out to it this evening. It is filling nicely and I anticipate having some "black gold" in the Summer to nourish my garden.

I feel better now. In print, I can balance out the good and the bad. In my mind, the good will always outweigh the bad.
