Daff Patch!
My little patch of daffs is growing. Last year, there were only two blooms. This year there are ten!
In yesterday’s post I asked:
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would that be?
I’m right where I want to be, thanks. Yes or no?
Do you feel the call of the move every few years?
Or… are you a settle into a community for 10-15-25+ years?
- I always thought living in a Nancy Meyers movie would be lovely. If not that, Tuscany.
- It will do for the moment, but no.
- I feel the call of an adventure every few years.
- On the other hand, being part of a we’ve-been-here-for-generations fam has its appeal. Probably, because it is so foreign to me.
Where are your answers?

I eat in the spring like someone who’s preggers. The grass starts greening, the flora start pushing up through last year’s leaves and maple keys, and I get hungry. And not in a good way. I just downed some leftover pasta and marinara with a side of fish stick for lunch. I call any breaded, baked fish a fish stick… no matter what shape it is. This one looked like a square hockey puck. And now all I can think about is a Snickers bar. And I can’t even remember the last one I had.
It could be the two days of gardening. Not the fun kind, but the cleanup and the raking before you get to the good stuff. Could I get a Tylenol, please?
Of course, it could have been a week of eating salads and proteins, but I don’t think so. I think it’s spring.
It will wear off eventually, and then I’ll be right back to eating grilled fish and salad and roasted veggies and pulses and…
But right now — Anybody got a Snickers bar?
Ooh, sausages!
Somebody save me.
Truth. I didn’t eat any of those things when I was preggers. I ate coffee grounds. No judging.
Here be Hump Day.
Work week be going down.

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would that be? Somewhere with good food, lots of parks, and mellow people.
I’m right where I want to be, thanks. Yes or no? Yes, sort of…
Do you feel the call of the move every few years? I used to but we decided to root here, so we did.
Or… are you a settle into a community for 10-15-25+ years? I’ve lived here the longest I’ve ever lived anywhere [almost 20 years], but it’s not a friendly sort of place so I have little sense of community. However, I’ve learned to thrive without it.

I like it, Ally! Your first answer. I could live there too. Yes, I’ve lived where I’m currently at the longest. I like your attitude… ‘learned to thrive without it.’ Burbville is just an awkward zone for me. Limbo. 🙂
