Whenever I'm feeling particularly ill tempered..


I walk out on the back deck and look at this view-

The world really can still be an awfully pretty place.

Off to play paintball with a gaggle of jacked up 11 year olds for the Hurricane's birthday. I expect I'll have to take a walk out to look at the view this evening..

A view like that can sure put your temper into the proper perspective..Beautimous!!

..be sure to watch your flanks,those eleven year olds can be ruthless.

Gavin- Naturally, or the little shits would kill me! I'm delicate and bruise easily..

Granny- Yes I really am, it's a mighty pretty place.

Sling- Better than Prozac my friend. They can be pretty ruthless- but I'm old, mean and sneaky so it levels the laying field.

Now I'm trying to think of you as being old or mean .... sorry doesn't compute! The sneaky well... okay I'll give you that.

How beautiful - paint ball with 11 year olds and the rising moon... you got it covered Lady!

Will you be wearing red Heels?

Of course you will, why did I even bother to ask...

Those 11 year olds don't stand a chance. And I can see you handing them a good ass kicking in red heels.

Enjoy the view afterward. It's beautiful.

Nature always works for me, too.

Well, that's just plain old lovely and has managed to do wonders for my ill temper. I'm not feeling ill tempered at the moment - it's not even 7 am, but I'm planning on feeling ill tempered by nine.

I think this will help stave it off.

Wills- Most days, you know what? I really do. I just need to remind myself more often.

Tate- A wee bit impractical, but my sneaks were red- does that count??

Tony- All my adopted kids have a love/fear relationship with me. And I'm perfectly fine with that actually.

Citizen- Natural Prozac my friend.

Sage- Old and crafty often beats out young and foolhardy ;)

Billy- I can cook baby, you better believe it.

Booda- 9:00 is about the time I go check and see if there are any bears out playing or anything ;)

Lovely, soul clearing. Luck you, and brave nice you to let them go nuts with the paint balls.

Elizabeth- I figure if it washes out, what the hell..
