ON THE BACK BURNER

 This area is like a rain forest. When I walk Dixie through the woods, the trees sprinkle us with rain drops. The grass is green and many trees are budding and the bulbs are sprouting. It has been a warm winter, after a cold summer. This works for me,since I haven’t experienced cold in years. I am wondering how I will react when I finally go out into the world. I have worn only sweat pants ,socks and various closed in shoes for months. The other day, I put mascara and eye brow stuff on and both my son and Grandson seemed startled. Every now and then , I wonder what lipstick feels like. When I packed to come here, I didn’t even throw one in my suitcase. As a matter of fact, there was a lot that I didn’t  throw in my suitcase. Who knew that what I thought would be three months turned  into 8 months and counting. But who’s counting.
