...and yet another entry
My musing took yet another direction... and produced yet another entry! This time I was waxing poetic. This was my poem entry. Hope you enjoy this one as well.... :)ONE LIFEOne Life.Does it really matter?One life?Yours.... mine... someone other's?One life?Son's, daughter's, father's mother's?Life spinning 'round me... always swirlingMeaning, purpose... whirling... twirlingI look... I search... but can I findJust what is it... am I blind?One life to capture...One life to find.Then it happened...
...a new twist
Our local newspaper is putting out a "Literature and Arts" fall supplement... and running a little contest for short stories, poems, photography and the like.... winners will be published. It got my muser going... this was my short story submittal.
Hope you enjoy it.... :)
Hope you enjoy it.... :)
...finally did it!
I did it... I really did... we have leaped... er uh jumped... well maybe hopped is a better word.. but we did it... into the wild new world of Facebook for the Bed & Breakfast. I came kicking and screaming but finally did it. Village Victorian now has their very own Facebook page. I had been doing a personal page for a while now and just couldn't ignore the potential any longer.... :)
....just suppose
Just suppose... that everything you knew of as life... suddenly stopped! I mean... just like that. Wham... the door shuts... everything stops. It happens all the time... to everybody eventually... to me it's happened so many times I've lost count! Ask our friends the Rodmans... one day everything is normal... everything is moving along according to plan... and suddenly... wham...
... my tiny little world
Ellen and I were talking about how we keep making our world smaller... and smaller... and smaller... while all around us everyone wants to expand... get bigger... acquire more....I called it my narrow little life.... hmmmm...
...so there I was
So there I was just musing away about what I was trying to communicate to some guests the other day... about how much we enjoy what we do here... and how different it is from all the other businesses we've been involved in... what triggered the whole thing was an email from my friend John in NH about how he was changing jobs...
...what a time it has been
Still recovering physically from all the madness of the past couple months... it is time for Philip to get back to whatever "normal" is supposed to look like for him this month. After our surreal run in July with 93 room nights... we closed out an even more surreal August with 95 room nights... August is supposed to be much slower than July. Whatever happened to the economic downturn? ...... :)
