Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.
11/23/2007

I decided to just leave some things where they lay.

I stopped and left an email in the draft folder the other day and then I deleted it this morning. I was going to try to contact someone from my CT past, I found them on the internet; I have contact information, saw a recent photo, but figured I would just leave it as a curiosity search. I guess with my recent trip home, I was delving around in my memories. There were a lot of people I left behind, only a handful of friends I kept in contact with over the years. I guess there was a reason back then, I just can’t remember why now.

I had a nice Thanksgiving Day: lounged around in the morning, got a few inside chores done and then headed out for dinner. A friend from work invited me over to share their family feast. I had a lovely time, had duck for dinner and lots and lots of side dishes. I came home and crashed with Saba for a short nap. I called Mom a bit later in the evening; she had been at the Macy’s parade and dinner in the city with a friend of hers. I got to hear about her adventures, she had quite a time.

Late last night the cell phone rang. Again it was someone from my past, but a bit more recent. I guess with the holiday other people were doing that walk down memory lane. It was a nice call, we got caught up a bit, but to tell you the truth, I think I am going to let that call lie also. I am not going to follow up with an email this morning. I guess when I am severally disappointed in someone I just need to let that person go. There are feelings that can’t be fixed with a call; there are expectations that were not met. There were promises that were broken, apparently without a thought to the consequences. I don’t want negative in my life, I like where I am at right now. I am very happy.

I am going to head out to the big box hardware store this morning. I am trying to get doors for the study and the laundry room. I am tired of looking at the unfinished openings. I will hit the leaves and the lawn later this morning when it warms up a bit. Then it is time to decorate for Christmas; I need to drag the decorations out of the shed. They got put there last year before the remodel was finished and the new house was ready for me to move into. It will be my first Christmas in my new house, the old barn.
