Perfect for you or Perfect for Everyone Else or Both?

Tis serendipitous, it was meant to be, you really nailed it there.

There’s someone out there for everyone.

A place for everything & everything in its place.

We have many ways to say the same thing: Perfect, but is it a state of mind, the end result to expectation or completely & utterly subjective?

Is it how something makes us feel?

When we see it, can we never in a thousand million years imagine anything better?

Or do we accept burnt toast & call it as close to perfect as we’ll get that day so over time the lessening of what we’ll take becomes our new definition of the P word?

In adhering to the promise I made earlier, I’m about to stay in the real zone & freely & wholeheartedly admit that when I finally decided to make this little endeavor a reality, I hadn’t given much thought to anything other than the words that would inhabit it. I’ve now spent the last few hours alternately throwing hands, pacing & cursing out the enormous amount of…esthetic options available & it is…redunkulous. Yes, I want it to all look pretty & polished & professional but like many things we do for the first time, its anyone’s guess if the landing will be stuck.

Save for skydiving, really hope that works out as it should each & every time.

So, I will now present these thoughts & musings to you, dear & hopefully sweet world & we’ll just see what happens when strange margins & pictures I can’t figure out how to change & so much randomness collides.

And I challenge you with this: who sets the standards, anyways? The “they” can try but I say let’s all do what brings us joy, full stop.

Hi! I'm a solo mama of 3, a medium priced bottle of Cabernet connoisseur, a fervent dog lover, a believer that people would be nicer if we could live in Disneyland & that good things can & do happen when we both least expect it & when we work our butts off. Now, if that hard work could also tone the butt, that would be splendid. I'm so thrilled that you've found In The Middle & I hope you find that it resonates, makes you think & gives you comfort when its been hard to find. Thank you and we're all in this together!
