The Mix From Two Weeks Ago. Last Week’s Mix Link Is On My Twitter Feed (@wdglover). I’ll Be Away

The end of the short version of a longer mix. I may post a follow-up later today.

Grandma and ribs

One day I will have all my sh*t straight and be able to post photos from my so-called life. Until then, I’ll pull a reverse Costanza. My little, old Italian grandmother needs my attention.

I’m feeling patriotic today. #music

It’s almost Howdy Doody Time! (Scheduled to post at 1 p.m. CDT)

Amateur food tip

Adding fresh #strawberries to any salad makes it so much better!

There goes the dogs!

Something new I penned ...

The day I left in the rain

I have many “worsts,” but the night where I left you in the rain gives me chills and my stomach knots just thinking about it.

I remember that I didn’t want to leave. I wanted to stay and find a way to make everything all right.

I was hurt when you tore my heart to pieces and slammed it on the pavement.

The next day, though, I was thankful to have been with you just for the short time we were together. (I had planned to pop the question the weekend after we broke up.)

Now I just want to find a way to jump to the end and see if what I think is what actually will be. (My mother says I’m putting the cart before the horse, which is true, but I feel pressed for time.)

I could live without you, but just typing those words made me cry, so I know what the real answer is: My life is not complete without you.

I’ve imagined it in many different ways. They all involve sunlight.

Praying for all of you cancer survivors this evening. To help carry me day to day during treatment, I like to look for wonder in the world. … Space has fascinated me for as long as I remember, so I recommend a course in the wonderful.

Happy Fourth of July! (Scheduled to post at 10 p.m. CDT)

still trying to work my way back to lifting weights. The big tumor’s out, but #cancer takes the wind out of your sails. (The image in the middle is before surgery.)
