Sunshine

I truly enjoy spending time in the sun. I have a tattoo of a sun on my inner left ankle, I thought about this tattoo for 2 years before I got it 16 years ago and to this day I do not regret it one iota. That is how much I truly enjoy sunshine. When I was a teenager I use to love to go and take naps in the back of my car ('72 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme -army green)with all the windows up on a warm day - laying in the warmth of the sun. I could never take naps but this was my one retreat. When I think back even further into my childhood most of my favorite memories were on warm summer days. It could of been fishing with my brothers or laying in the sun (using baby oil)with my sisters playing board games or even just trekking around town with my friends exploring where ever we wanted. The sun gives me hope and lightens my heart. It makes me smile and therefore brings back warm, loving and happy memories not the dark, cold, harsh ones of winter. I am happy for springtime finally arriving and I hope it stays because I can use all the sunshine I can get in my life. SO- here's to you my dear friend Mr. Sun - keep shining.

  1. I love the sun too! My last blog post is about the rain... too funny. Stuff is looking like Spring here but it's either been wet/gray and/or cold. When Spring is so close you can feel it but not enjoy it, it's frustrating.
