I have a grounded child at the house. I originally thought this weekend might be a quiet, thought-provoking time, perhaps even a little freeing. But oh no. Oh hell no. I can barely blog or use the computer without my little friend asking me what the heck she's supposed to do without friends, computers or television. She's so....BOOOORED. It is all I can do now, at the tail end of the day, to sneak away from her presence for a minute and type!
She is calling my name right this minute. Lord!
Quickly, the tool I used today was Nostalgia. We made Bishop's Bread, one of my grandmother and mom's favorites. Making an old recipe together made this grounding feel, for an instant, fun.
Nostalgia's appeal is comfort and joy. It brings you back to a place of happiness and makes you feel pleased that something you loved has been carried forward.
Thank you Nostalgia, for being a light in a very long, whiney day.
