Waiting is maddening

"Keep your heart open to dreams. For as long as there's a dream, there is hope, and as long as there is hope, there is joy in living."
~Anonymous

First thoughts when waking up…is it snowing? Silly question because it has been on and off flurrying from October on. Not much so far as accumulations, no shoveling just enough to remind me I am not in Florida any more.

I ask myself, what is wrong with you? I gave up a new life in Florida for this. Add to my twisted world, I got the “bug” again. Love these cold temps followed by runny nose and hacking cough. This one might run its course without a trip to the Dr. Our table once again has a line of over the counter cold meds covering it. I think I’ll decorate them with Christmas lights.

I went to my spine Dr yesterday and got an epidural, maybe it will ease some of the pain in my back. Hope so. I am scheduled to go back in three months although he recommended I see a surgeon. I might pass on that suggestion. I slept the rest of yesterday feeling groggy but this morning my mind is a bit clearer.

I am still waiting to hear from the lawyer concerning the contract from the publisher offering to print my book. I have noticed I don’t have as much patience as I thought I did. I feel like crawling through the phone and asking in person…What’s up? Ya or nay?

I called and left a message day before yesterday. I hate the answering machine thing…I feel as though I sound like an idiot. My sentences are choppy and I have this insane desire to say, “Never mind. Don’t listen to this dribble.” Some times I hang up when reaching a machine. Opps! I then think, stupid caller ID.

She didn’t return my call. Crap. My mind is playing weird games with me…it is as if I am waiting for the jury to come back after deliberations. Is the longer wait a good sign…or not so good?

I just wish I could craw through that phone and rattle a cage.
