The Recipe for Disappointing News
Monday, March 2, 2009
This is what you do when you get terribly disappointing news, as I just have.
You fill the house with music (fast and loud). You locate, between the clouds, the sun. You open the door to your father who has slid down streets and trudged through snow with a bag filled to bursting with tulips (yellow).
A friend sends you a photo to make you laugh, and you do.
Another friend listens.
Your son sends news: A 100 on his Interpretation of Fiction mid-term.
That's my recipe. I offer it to you.

These are the best kinds of band-aids.
Here is a quote from my big sis-
" Sometimes it takes a village to cheer me up." :D
Thank God they always come through!

I hope you are feeling better.
Oh, I'm so sorry! I hope things get better for you! *hugs*
ahhhh Beth, a beautiful post- it get my award for post of the day- seeing the problem and dealing with it.......beautiful.....I have a dad like that too ( and a son like that as well come to think of it ! )
I hope you get some wonderful news soon to make up for this disappointing one.
What lovely ways to put a smile back on your face! I hope it's still there, and that tomorrow is a better day :)
Now I'm really convinced that you're a good cook. ;)
I found the sun between the clouds today, too. And watched Highschool Musical, (my first time), with my daughter. So I guess mine turned out almost like yours. *smiles*
Your father is an absolute gift. I'm glad you found light in your day. Tomorrow will be much better. Hugs.
Beth, A wonderful band for you to listen to tonight is called Parachute VA....Music..a wonderful healer, gentle friend. Love from your cousin who lives a life that is music...literally!
That sounds like a great recipe. Thank you.
I'm sorry about your disappointing news.
Loud music and flowers and family, that sounds like a great recipe.
I'm thinking of you...

Lots of love from me to you.
This is the best recipe I've read in a long time.
