Today was the last day of spring training at Fort Meyers and the Sox won. I love it. Would have been better if I watched but the stupid hockey game was on. I can’t wait for Monday’s game against the Skankees.
I was talking with a friend of mine when an idea struck. She is writing a book about her coin finding and I thought that I should do the same but about songs. I have a knack for songs finding me and having some deep meaning with me. Take for example Gloriana’s new single, “Can’t Shake You”. It is the perfect song of when my therapist left me and I couldn’t get over her. Or Rascal Flatts “the Broken Road”. I hear that and it makes me think of my friend Melinda who if she didn’t cross my path when she did, I doubt that I would be here today. I can write most songs that I listen to that have a meaning for me. I don’t know if this is just the crazy part of me but I know sometimes these songs talk to me.
Went to Starbucks today to have my Isla Flores, my Indonesian coffee that I absolutely love. This has to be the third or fourth coffee from that country that I like. I still have my Blue Java and they also have the West Java which I am kind of crazy about but it can be a little overwhelming with the aftertaste. I have switched to drinking my coffees iced and that has helped. I just wish I could make iced coffee at home without diluting it.
Of course the temperature today is twenty degrees higher than it has been all week and my back is paying the price for it. I keep on getting spasms in my back. I am so far resisting the urge to pop a pain pill as the sciatica is just about my breaking point. I am supposed to watch my niece tonight and I hope that my back cooperates. I’d hate to cancel on my brother in law’s birthday because my back is hurting.
