Maggie's Day 322 of Discovering Love in an Empty Handed Tenth Day of Christmas Without Ten Lords Leaping

If there were Ten Lords a Leaping anywhere in this town today, I did not see them. I was about sitting and watching, waiting and seeking yet I never saw one Lord nor anyone leaping. I didn’t see any frogs either.

Thirteen and a half-hours later I am exhausted, empty handed and without a photo or a love of discovering Ten Lords a Leaping. It’s a good thing we’re in some pretty bad economic times because I found a solution to my almost empty-handed nothingness.

Since I couldn’t find ten of anything I thought about a derivative of ten. That could be one. So, I am one. I’m a lady instead of a Lord. On this day that was a good enough trade off for me, an exceptional one at that.



So, I had one of me but there was no way I was going to be leaping. I did a lot of things today but leaping wasn’t one of them. Not knowing what to do I looked up why “Ten Lords a Leaping” on the computer to discover that they were paid entertainers.

That took me in another direction. What do I do to get paid or how do I like to entertain or be entertained?

All of this transpired while I was listening to my Relaxing Christmas Jazz CD. Over and over again this holiday season I have listened to one or the other of the CDs in the set. It is so relaxing, warming, intimate, uplifting and whatever other good word you can come up with for just the right experience.

So, I discovered love today in enjoying a recession proof live music experience while listening to my favorite Christmas Jazz CD. Entertaining myself to no end.

There are only two days left for this Christmas season. How shall I spend them?

Sweet Dreams to you and all those who celebrate your favorite things with you! Maggie ã
