Thanks Louie

I went to my store alone last night, to be creative. I just needed to be alone. A part of me wanted to be there for the fireworks, as I love them so. As I crossed the street to watch the fantastic display over the river, I felt dad. I said to dad, "I'm watching these for you, and I'm enjoying these for you". Nothing could distract me from standing there and taking it all in for dad. It was just he and I, among 200,000 people, it was just he and I. I heard him sing to me when they played this song by Louie, I placed my little feet on dads feet, held his hands, and danced with him slowly while the sky was flashing...

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I have so much to say....

but no energy at all. I am like a spent bullet, only better, there is still life in me ;) My business is doing fantastic, for the first week anyway. The downside of owning a business is you have to deal with ALL sorts of people, maybe I'll finally learn patience. My partner is better at socializing with customers, since her personal life is full of socializing because of the status of her family. Me, I'm a behind the scenes kind of girl, I prefer to stay quiet, and I'm comfortable with just listening. But I swear, I must have this sign on my face that says, "please come to me and tell me about your life". Now here's a sentence for you, " I know more about people, that I don't even know, then I care to know". I'm not complaining, really, I find it sort of comical, in a way. I really miss writing my thoughts down, so I end up carrying them for days on end. Life will slow down after summer is over, I'm sure.........or maybe not.

From the bottom of my patriotic heart......

God Bless America!
