Pia's Nest: Resolutions/Resolve.

January 01, 2006

Resolutions/Resolve.

Learn to drive a nail into a plaster wall.

Learn to undo the gas line at the meter and blow water back out to the street with a C02 tank so we don't have to wait for Entergy to figure out why water is leaking into the main, and we can have heat and hot water.

Learn to light the pilots in the water heater and the heating unit on the second floor so we don't have to wait two days and pay a plumber $75.00 to do this.

Learn the history of this lovely old house, ordered in 1908 from the Sears Catalogue.

Pick up dead roaches, beetles and wasps that collected in corners, sinks/tubs and on windowsills while we were living in Houston instead of waiting for A or M to do this.

Hang dark curtains in my office so it's not bright in there. The spines of my books are fading.

Listen to Wozzeck twice, and again, and feel my ear open up to the beauty of a less familiar language.

Touch my palms to the ground without bending my knees.

Write. Read. Practice Yoga. Garden. Pray. Listen. Learn. Share. Help. Wait. Love.
