Our columbines are blooming! A variety of colors are scattered around the front drive and down the bank. The white azaleas also burst out in the past couple of days; it\u2019s usually the last azalea color to blossom. The temps got up to 84 degrees; the hottest day of the year so far, and more 80s coming this week. Went for a long walk in a part of town I don\u2019t usually get to, talking as I walked and getting the Mamacita update from my sister. She\u2019ll probably go back to the place where we moved her but with some changes. I talked to her first thing this morning. She started out a little gloomy but without much force behind it. All of us agreed after talking to her today at various times that she seems resigned, if not a little remorseful that\u2019s she caused trouble. She hasn\u2019t, but life would be easier if she accepted that she needs to rely on others for help. It\u2019s made me wonder how I\u2019ll behave when my body deteriorates to the point where I\u2019ll lose my independence. I\u2019ve never been one for wanting to rely on others. In high school, I took the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory<\/a>, and I remember the person who interpreted my results telling me the test showed I was fiercely independent. I went home and told Mom that. Her response: \u201cWell, I could have told you that when you were one year old. We didn\u2019t need to spend fifty bucks for that information!\u201d Mama never minced words.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s National Tell a Story Day, so here\u2019s the story<\/a> I told at the show I was in Saturday night; theme was The Great Outdoors.<\/p>\n
