I put on face book: is it a rut if you are happy there?? Interesting responses- most people taking it to mean I was really in a rut-but I was saying I am really happy in my rut: painting, working out, its spring smell the flowers rut. However it did get me a date to go to my friends farm and ride her horses and see her chickens and kitties and dogs (yes she is living my dream life) I am so looking forward to it and to seeing her again-once more picking up dropped threads of my life. I am starting to feel as if I were smarter at making friends in my youth than I thought I was cause they are all drifting back into my life and it is good! It is a surprising and wonderful thing
