Cooler broke down today. Frozen water in the flower bucket is never a good sign. Thermostat is shot, so says the electrical fix-it man. It will be up and running in a couple days. So, I took all the flowers out of the cooler, saved the one's I could and chucked the rest. I don't really mind. Instead of the cooler, I turned down the temp in the building, put on a sweater, and surrounded myself with flowers in my work room. Of course, had this happened last week during the Valentine's mania, I would have had a nervous breakdown! I have busied myself with putting the shop back in order. Doing a little spring cleaning. Finally, I let go of the thought that I actually needed a kitchen here at the shop, and turned the kitchen into a second work-space. All very mundane little tasks that I welcome, gladly. Days like these I LOVE. I spent so many years hurrying as fast as I could at the cafe...taking time to do silly little stuff is crazy wonderful. Like standing in the snow catching snowflakes on my tongue. What I'm really looking forward to is spring.....then I'm going to stop and smell the roses.
