a letter

[nascentbutterfl]

I've recieved a letter from a dear friend who is in France right now.  And all I want to do is blow off my responsibilities and buy a raspberry lemonade in the Bistro and sit under a blossoming cherry tree by the gently flowing mill stream that doesn't even look terribly dirty right now and rip it open and savor the thick pages of it.

Instead, though, I am going to make a list of announcments, call Shari's, and be crafty.

I will read the letter later tonight, or--if I have enough self control--I will read it tomorrow under an ornamental cherry tree.
