One month. Until Jimmy comes home for his vacation. I am counting the days. Until he is in the same state, then the same town, then the same house as the rest of his family. So long it has been. So overdue. I need my fill. Don't get me wrong...I am well aware that as soon as he lands within the family circle he will be off and running. So much to do, so many to see! He will want to fit it all in. He wouldn't be Jimmy if he didn't. I love his enthusiasm. His spirit. It infuses the house and colors us all. We move into a higher gear. Into Jimmy's faster orbit. Laughter reigns.
For now it is anticipation. The calm before the lightning. The moon before the sun.
The sun. Here comes my sun.
