Well, it's Monday. Life continues to be crazy.

Yesterday, DH got up at 0430 to go fishing. After he left, I went back to bed for a couple of hours. Got up a little after 7am, poured myself a cuppa, and made the the mistake of sitting down to read the news. And reading. And Reading. And READING...

Before I knew it, it was almost noon. My coffee was ice cold, my stomach was in knots, I had a headache, and the right side of my jaw was a fiery ball of pain. Obviously, my anxiety level was at Defcon 2. Yikes!

Happy hump day, STalkers! The title says Women, but Men are welcome, too. Biggrin

Life seems to be chaos with no clear end in sight, so I've been stepping back more from the ugliness to seek peace and beauty.

I stumbled across a quote by Omar Khayyam that was (to me) profound and lovely and wanted to share it with you...

Happy Tuesday, STalkers! Hope you had an enjoyable weekend. 

Thought we might have a little fun with music. Here are the rules: Answer each category with a song name or lyric. No repeats and try not to use Google (it's tempting but try not to). Go with the first song that comes to mind or fill in your favorites. Might be a bit hard, but fun!

I did all song titles...

Something to Wear - Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress

Something to Drink - Whiskey In Mind

A Place - Walking In Memphis 

A food - Popcorn

An Animal - Eye Of The Tiger

OT - Tater T'ursday

Yes, TATER. 

Taters (potatoes) are - to me - Comfort Food. Especially mashed. I sometimes make stew withOUT potatoes in it and we ladle over mashed potatoes. Nom nom nom...

I love my DH, but there are times I want to pinch him. We went grocery shopping and the man snuck a 50lb box of potatoes onto the bottom of the cart. I didn't see it until after he paid. 

One can only eat so many baked, boiled, hashed, and mashed potatoes before you feel tater'd out.

Folks, I need some tater recipes!!! Anyone know if Spuds McKenzie has anything?

Well, fabulous for me! I'm off today (just got back from the doctor) and ready for a relaxing weekend.

It's a whopping 67 degrees here (yes, I'm wearing shorts, tee, and flip-flops) and my vision is almost 100%. Woo hoo!!!

For those who emailed/PMd me, I will get back to you. Dont want to overdo things and am spending a minimal amount of time looking at screens until Monday.
