I Love a Monday...

I love Monday. I love it because I love beginnings. I like the power of a beginning. I LOVE overtures when I go see a show. I shoosh the people around me still talking during the overture. Don't they know that THIS is part of the whole experience and that they need to concentrate and connect with the music? It's important. When they finally connect it's when the orchestra would start playing one of the hit songs from the show. Well, I never focused on just the hit song, I liked the whole thing, the energy and especially at one point in the overture when the house lights start to come down and the excitement surges.
So Monday is like the overture for my week. I want to connect and make something happen. Make things happen. Get to work, let go of last week and make THIS week win awards.

The house is kind of messy, especially our kitchen/dining room. The dining room table is like a giant magnet that attracts all kind of crap. I don't know how it happens. I swear it multiplies in the night.

So the first case of bird flu death hit Iraq. Actually it could be TWO cases. How frightening. It's sneaking up on us and we are just standing around watching. Are we? Is anyone doing anything about this? Ofcourse they are. But the “cry Wolf” syndrome is in full swing. My brother told me that it was nothing to worry about. It's been around forever he says. Well yes, the flu and birds, yes, they have been around forever... but this strain, THIS virus is new.

It freaks me out.
