Presents

Christmas morning snow...
even squirrels have presents
under their tree



Another piece from real life, as opposed to imagined life. I was out this morning, surrounded by squirrels and birds all going from yard to yard.

The squirrels especially captured my attention... obviously. They were up and down trees and along phone lines and fencetops. Then, one would stop, turn and dig up a treat.

I got a special treat myself. Yesterday of all days I got a very nice reply to a resume I had sent out. Just getting a reply is unusual enough, but it was nice... and very nice. I don't want to get my hopes up too much, but it is a position I think I am ideally suited to take. I'm sure there are others, as well, who are thinking the same.

So... for today, I am just another squirrel. Some friends would argue that this is no different from any other day, I'm sure.
