let’s party

as we head into the coldest week of winter, this grass stem (with an assist from a sturdier twig and a vine) still looks ready to celebrate with leaves like party streamers. that is what i call a positive attitude. instead of hunching my shoulders against the cold and pulling my scarf up over my nose. perhaps i need to put on some lipstick and sunglasses and walk into the grocery store as if it’s 70 degrees outside. hell, why not? it’s a short walk from the car to entrance.  i draw the line at wearing flip-flops however. the line between fun and foolish is blurry. or maybe that is just my glasses fogging up as i exhale into my scarf. shoulders back. head up. let’s go.
