I apologize for the picture that accompanies Sanaya Says
today (www.SanayaSays.com). See the April 1st post – or don’t,
if it means you’ll blow your diet. (In
which case you might want to read my first book, “Conquer Your Cravings.”)
In any case, happy April!
This day brings fond memories of my childhood, when my mother,
affectionately known around The Villages as “Ruthie,” used to really get into
April Fool’s Day. One year she outdid
herself. She put Vaseline on the
bathroom doorknobs and sewed together the bottom edges of the towel hanging on my
towel rack so that when I got out of the shower it just went round and round
like one of those cloth towels in a public restroom. I thought I had made it through the day,
until I went to get ready for bed. I
slipped my nightgown over my head and discovered that she had also sewn the
sleeves shut! She was (and still is) a
real card. It’s no wonder everyone loves
her. Just like Sanaya advises us to do
today, she went the extra mile to let us kids know we were loved. Thanks, Mom, I love you.
Ty and I agreed not to play any tricks on each other
today. For those of you who’ve read his blog, you can understand why I’m not quite sure I can trust him! Happy April to all of you. May today and every day be filled with an
extra pinch of love.
