If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid seeing yourself in the mirror, because I'll bet that's what REALLY throws you into a panic.
~ Jack Handey, Deep Thoughts ~

Today was just about perfect, so I'm holding my breath. Seems like I'm always on the brink of panic because every time I start to feel a bit relaxed something else happens. But, for today, for right now, I'm breathing freely, sort of.

I got a phone call from my mother and she sounded good - weak, but good. And, yes, I'm still slightly holding my breath on this one!

David and I spent a couple of hours at the beach where I waded in the crystal waters of the Gulf. We must have found more than a dozen broken sand dollars. That may not sound like much, but you just don't find shells of any kind too often here. I guess it's a trade off for the turquoise and emerald waters.
