just perfect...

Today was about as close to perfect as I can expect life at this time to be. I got to sleep late which always makes me feel decadent! I woke with a full day of doing whatever I wanted to do without any type of deadline or working around someone's schedule. I was able to mop my floors, wash my rugs, put up my dishes which I washed last weekend, doing my laundry for the week and organizing a couple of things I had been trying to get time to do. It was a beautiful day weather wise and I enjoyed being outside for a lot of the day. Lacey and I took a really long walk this evening. We went from our house to Central Ave behind the First Methodist church, then turned on 8th street and back to Ridge Ave. She is so easy to walk with because she never tugs on the leash and keeps pace with my gait. She also helps provide incentive for me to walk every night.
This evening I did my "beauty?" routine of shaving my legs and doing my toenails and fingernails. As I was shaving, I remember the first time us girls got to shave our legs. We used an electric razor and actually had so much hair between the three of us that we burned up the motor.
The one movie star I shared a birthday with died today. I was stunned when I heard that Paul Newman had died. I have seen just about every movie he ever made. He was also a great humanitarian and gave a lot of money to charity. That is so unusual to find in movie stars today.
I realized today that it has been exactly 4 months since my world was torn apart by discovering that Don and Sharon had been having an affair and were planning on leaving Tifton and living together. I still cannot believe it happened and I feel as though my ability to love and trust again will never, ever be the same. I don't like feeling this way...
