The recipe for healing may or may not include the following items.
1. First, gather your friends together for a Friday afternoon meeting.
2. Share with them the violet story, and the violet that is still blooming. (Oh, and the brown needlepoint pillow? My mother's work, as well.)
3. Visit the nearby Goodwill, where you will stumble upon treasures that will light up your new digs.
4. Add some outdoor creatures that have decided to keep you company on cold winter mornings and quiet afternoons. (Aren't they a lovely couple?)
5. Add some enticing contraptions that may or may not catch 9 mice. (Watch your fingers, and please ignore the band-aids on mine. p.s.)
6. Surprises in the mail from great friends will keep your spirits high. (The people at Starbucks have surely been wondering what happened to me.)
