10-4

EDNESDAY BLUES...

Gloomy weather does this to me, and it's been gloomy since Sunday.  Tomorrow they say better, sure hope so Im about at my limit on days inside drippy trees, dark grey skies, and the foggy windows.  Did I say it's humid? 98% and as a cold front moves in tonight it will be 59 degrees, and tomorrow Yippie humidity gone, for now.  When you live close to the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico there is this thing called prevailing winds...and I am located in a Zone! 

Today is FALL...yippie, and signs of that are everywhere from the yellow goldenrod, to the ripe persimmon on the ground...to the deer in estrus.  I hope we have a long beautiful fall. I also hope these clouds open up so I can see the full moon tonight...the Harvest Moon. 

I was born under the Constellation Libra, with the moon in Third Quarter phase of Cancer, and my planet is Venus, to the "what's your sign wonderers".  I am an air sign. 
Oh well it means little once you come and go but while  you're here I guess it means a lot.  To stay busy I've been making birthday cards, and I made 2 that I really like then I kept going and before you know it I didn't like them...so back to the drawing board literally.  Must know when to say OK it's done...I can salvage one by gluing another page on top so I've decided to do that...and one I already mailed out!  I have some cute paper that will work...I am using watercolor and glitter.  My son and I went to Walmart, he scanned I bagged, and he said "glitter"? Hmmm

Yes I am still a flower child of old drawing rainbows, and butterflies, and looking up at the night sky in awe...next week I have my birthday...and Im creeping every closer out of  the 3rd quarter of my  life to the final chapter. When I go around photo'n headstones, I'm always amazed at how many people die on their birthday or close to  it...

I have been in a morbid state of mind recently I think it's the change of season causing this introspective and my approaching birthdate.  I feel that so much of my life, 3/4 of it, is behind me, so I do  a lot of reflecting and remembering...and I often try to recall what I forgot...like yesterday I couldn't recall the EMS radio codes...for like when you get a call and you're on the way, for when you arrive, and for when you're clear again...I won't ever forget 10-2 tho...

Look that one up..HERE  So I think for an EMS worker that would be an appropriate epitaph. She is 10-2.

Since I've been out of EMS for 20 yrs now it hardly applies...altho when my X passed I had them put a jockey riding  a racehorse on his stone because he was at one time in his life a Jockey.  But I don't know I may have a plaque added to my mom's mausoleum spot to mark my death...because I want to be cremated....and I could put the EMS emblem on it and Ten-two under it? 
 I see others have as many as 4 plaques on their spot. 

I guess I will never know what really happens unless I do it before I die.
