One of Those Days…

The earth revolves while I stand still. I’m in a pickle without the dill, Under the weather and over the hill, Unable to cash in and left with the bill…

The earth revolves while I stand still.

I’m in a pickle without the dill,

Under the weather and over the hill,

Unable to cash in and left with the bill…

    Oh goodness, “those” days! I love the line “in a pickle without the dill”, Melody. Prior to reading this, I had a very negative association with the “in a pickle” phrase (said to me by a church lady who had no empathy or grace)–so now I can say it with an impish grin!! Thank you so much–God bless you! love, Caddo

      Funny how associations color our worlds, isn’t it? Impish grins, now – those are welcome here!

        I rejoice Every time the Lord turns a negative association into a Fun one–so this is a bonding moment with you, for me!!

        Nice – now you’re stuck with me! 🙂

        Couldn’t be Happier!!! ‘Course, that sorta means you’re stuck with me too…

        That’s okay – bondage – er, ‘bonding’ is fine with me! 🙂

        Oh dear, I laughed so hard I choked! No bondage–my tastes are terribly “vanilla”!

        Ha! Vanilla it is! You be careful, now – I don’t want to be known for being the one who choked Caddo Veil to her early retirement from poetry! 😦

        Well, it’s not very likely, Melody–but to “die laughing”? You can’t beat that!! Oh I meant to tell you something funny–I was on the phone with my cousin last week (St Theresa, in Texas), bemoaning the full moon issues to the extent that I “just wanted to die and go home to Heaven”. Well, Theresa’s both devout–and a tease. She said, “well, wouldn’t it be something if you got up there to Heaven, and saw 3 full moons!” It was hard to laugh that day–but I made a satisfactory effort. She’s really great about cheering me on during the rough times–always urges me to “tell that devil where to go!” God bless her!

        Everyone needs a St. Teresa in their life! Laughter Is good medicine…

        It sure-’nuff is!! I’m in between church services at the moment–the comedian, Michael Jr, is entertaining and testifying–way cool, I laughed and cried. I don’t know if you’re familiar with him–(evidently he plays the circuit of comedy shows, & Leno, etc). I wasn’t, until last summer, when he visited at my online (Texas) church. Now, he’s moved his family from Hollywood–and they’re members at Gateway Church–way cool!!
