Hot times Outside - Cool and Comfortable Inside

Time for a little levity.   Monday morning and a vacation day looms of the horizon.  Enjoying the reverie of the weekend as I lay in bed cozy and warm; the air conditioner cranked to arctic levels.  There are stalactites on the ceiling and stalagmites forming on the hardwood floor.  A few of the ceiling inhabitants are lengthening and would make a unicorn proud.
These ice formations seem to be rainbow colored.  I wonder what that could signify?
I’m trying the type but my fingers aren’t working.  I’m not sure if it's the long nails that slip off the keys of my designer keyboard or if the layer of frost from the bedroom walls has infiltrated my trusty scribing device.
 With the advent of summer I don’t think Frosty will be making a guest appearance but if he did, there would be no melting going on in this bedroom.
As I peer through the icicles hanging precipitously overhead, I glance through the small circles of mirror not obscured by the frost and I think I see a red nose.  I wasn’t expecting a Rudy awakening but I guess in my literary world anything is possible.
There was nothing frigid about Raven 25, and I don’t mean the weather.  Warmth radiated from all corners of friendshipland.  Yes, we all need reassurances from time to time and these bi-monthly events help with nipping and tucking the memories into our emotional safe.  When anticipation blossoms into reality, and that reality eclipses expectation, the investment’s yield far exceeds and refills to overflowing our cup of cheer. 
Thanks to all who made the trek to New Hope. I look forward to a few interim gatherings of a more quaint but no less enjoyable nature.  There are many take aways from the weekend; not the least of which is "we don't see each other enough".
Have an awesome week.
Love and hugs, Nikki DeCaro
