Marsha Always Said

My wife had a way about looking at life that I found interesting at times, wise at other times and frustrating on certain other occasions. The fun part is that now I carry the voice in my head. The frustrating parts I can ignore although I must admit ignoring is with some difficulty. I frequently use the example that at home I can't leave the house without making the bed. I might start to do it but the voice in my head calls out Dana not yet honey. I have to go back and make the bed. Well maybe once or twice I have slipped up in a hurry. The voice in my head is not a bad thing, it acyually feels good to remember how well she cared for me and our home. Some of them involve her outlook on life. Marsha always said that bad weather was God's way of saying slow down. If that's the case New England must be in severe need of a nap. It has been one of those times when outdoor activity is limited by the continual threat of rain or it's actual falling. I was playing golf the other day and one of the guys was questioning if we would be able to complete the round and I said as Marsha might not to worry that God was only sweating not crying. The other guy said that for most of the summer he must have been wailing. I don't know that God is that involved in our current events and daily weather report but Marsha's sayings usually hold some validity. Indeed weather can slow us down and after being in the South where living is slower I think New England might need a nap, or at least a slow down. What's that Marsha what are you saying now. Oh for heavens sake.
