One of my bestest friends wrote to me this morning and said, “Take care of u…i hope u have a reasonably good day.”
This is my reply…
Dear Friend,
Yes, I plan to have a reasonably good day.
I am going to try to stay offline, reading what other people wrote, and do some serious writing myself.
For this NaNoWriMo thing I signed up for.
I sent my sister the memory I wrote, about the night she was born.
She enjoyed reading it and spoke nice words to me, about what I’d written.
I can’t handle criticism right now.
Instead of saying, “Thank you for your opinion, now shove it where the sun don’t shine”, I might just stop writing it.
And I don’t want that to happen.
I want to see it through.
I’ll have three square meals at au bon pain.
Or maybe round ones, since I’m all curves and bumps right now.
I am taking care of me.
Hot shower. check.
Big, cozy, turquoise shirt with hot pink underneath for Color In My Day. check.
Makeup (because I’m a girl). check.
Laptop for endless hours of entertainment in the hospital. check.
Books for when I’m sick of that. check.
Cell phone. check.
Hope you have A Reasonably Good Day too.
Or maybe even A Fantabulous One!
Love,
Janean
