Reminded of an old favorite....

This has been around at least since my youth, but I don't Google an attribution.... The point is at the last. Whenever things aren't going quite the way I want (and I mean in a BIG way) I try to remember this, and give myself some slack and a small reward for all that does get accomplished, etc.

Because thirst is a dangerous thing.

enough to eat,

and a little more than

Sharing food and water is important... For I cannot stand to be hungry. i start to eat myself

I've got a 6:30 pm client (emm) for 2 hours, but I can usually get away by 9:00 pm-ish--

Can I lure you with sorbet? W & I have been experimenting with gelato, and we're pretty good.... %^)

hmm i posted earlier to this and it didn't make it!

Are you busy for dinner on wed? So I can help with the enough to eat.

afterall for me hunger is a dangerous thing... it makes me use my teeth sometimes on myself.

I think my messages are set for "cloaking device" until I reply, but I haven't gone back to figure out what I checked on defaults....
