I watched Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood yesterday. One of my all time favorite movies.
I love the part where Siddalee after talking to her mom Vivi on the phone bangs it on the counter. I have done that time again not only with my Mom, but also my Nana(rip) and my darling daughter! Heck, really, who hasn't?
Then there's the part where she is talking to her father, and towards the end of the conversations she asks him if he was loved enough, and he looks at her and says 'what is enough'?
What is enough?
Do you have enough in your life?
I do from my Mom, daughter and gbabies.
I do from Kenny.
I used to cry copious amounts of tears at that part of the movie, because at that time, I didnt have enough. Or my perception of enough.
In a quote from another movie Hope Floats, my cup runneth over.
And that, is a wonderful thing to say.
Yesterday was a hard day. I am better today. Tears were shed, tears are cleansing.
One story I want to share about Missy is....
When she was 11 she started catching flies and putting them in a Ziploc baggy. When I asked her why she was doing this, she told me she was going to make a fly-pie. Keep in mind she was 11.
What I didnt know is she had put them in the freezer. I didnt find this out until we moved some 6 or 7 years later. It was a big freezer and at that time I was a horrible housekeeper.
I erupted into laughter and called her on the phone to remind her of this. It was one in many many happy memories I was fortunate enough to share with her.
I hope everyone has a terrific Friday, and weekend too.
As for me, I am watching clouds move in, remnants of Hurricane Dolly, I hope it rains!
Hugs everyone!
