Well, I’m tired. I should be exhausted. I sang two Masses in church this morning, after which I attended a meeting in another church building, then walked home. I fed Harmony the Cat, changed into something comfortable, ate some lunch, and had a phone conversation with my friend Joan, who wanted to know about the meeting. Then I collapsed on my bed and fell asleep while watching “Gone With the Wind” on TV. Now I am awake and writing this. Under normal circumstances, my Sundays are not so busy, but today was an exception.
Watching “Gone With the Wind”
for the umpteenth time, I can’t help but wonder what would possess that silly
bitch Scarlett O’Hara to moon and long over Ashley Wilkes when she had Rhett
Butler to lust after. If I were her, I would
have considered Ashley’s marriage to Melanie a sign I should ditch him,
especially with Rhett Butler hanging around just waiting to be grabbed. Someone should have taken Scarlett and shaken
some sense into her. But then there
wouldn’t have been such a good story. Oh
well. You take the bad with the good. Thank you, Margaret Mitchell.
The April edition of The
Corlear Gardens Newsletter, of which I am the editor and head of the newsletter
committee, is ready to be printed and distributed. This is after I pestered two of my
contributors to get their work in on time.
Then, when I emailed the “final” version to all contributors, some of
them wanted corrections. I had to go
into the original several times, make the corrections, turn the document into a
PDF so that everyone could open and read it, and send it out to everyone once
again. By now, it seems that everyone is
happy. I will send the final version
tomorrow to be printed and distributed to the people in this building. After that, my work will be done until the time
for the May edition.
Now that I have written this, I
can officially collapse.
