'Cause I am easy...

Sunday morning I sat outside in my backyard while I waited for the girls to rise. The song of the cicadas quickly puts me in a trance. There are at least a million of them around me I can hear them. I can sense them. Millions of madly, insanely male cicadas lusting for their female counterpart. It's a love song a mating call and she can hear it. Their begging call traveling through the trees ... "mate her". This will be the choir, the symphony that will take me all the way into the Fall.




He sensed I had risen early and even on his day off he wishes to cease the day. He finds me and looks around. He sees the bright sun and me in some far away land with my eyes shut. The blue water calls him and he jumps right in... The sound of water brings me back to the present time and I document this moment.




Sundays are easily my favorite day of the week. Its the stillness and easiness on a Sunday morning that lures me in like the female cicadas fall for the mating call. It is on this glorious Sunday morning where I have now attended church and made peace. I feel as if I am one with the cosmos. It is this sunshine and the world around me that makes me feel like a queen...




And just like the bumblebee I am diving in head first...



This week I plan to finish and fully conceptualize the next photography project. A road trip to Atlanta is also coming up the next week. A road trip with a girlfriend sounds like good medicine. We are staying with some friends which holds the promise of laughter and late night stories. Thanks to State Farm for giving this blogger tickets to see Jennifer Lopez and Enrique Iglesias in Atlanta. I will make sure to document and even video some of our hooligans and shenanigans on the long drive.



I hope you had a peaceful weekend.



Happy Monday peeps and please stay sweet.

Cleaning House...

I am finally in the last stages of clearing and cleaning and putting everything back in its place...
Its been raining for the last two days and the rain has provided me with the needed silence...
The silence needed as I played in my head the good times we had while we were together...



I've told you once before that when I think in my thoughts there is always music... sweet music...
My music during this cleaning spree and walk through Memory Lane was like a mix tape...

Some pics by Alma, Some mine, Some Michael Fisher

A mix tape of melancholic and nostalgic tunes and once in awhile a happy tune would pop up in my head which would make me smile and fantasize... And in return it gave me hope and made me dream of the time when we can meet again... and the chance to get away from our daily lives and play...



My house is almost free of all the evidence... The evidence that would have said guilty as charged and would have sentenced me for life... Guilty of loving not only my cousins and friends but their babies... guilty of trying to suck all the sweet nectar out of life like a greedy bee...



It's once again the weekend and I am flying swiftly searching for honey on Monday I'll be buzzing around sharing with you... Stay Sweet Peeps!
