"Down" and what it refers to...
Down is a lot of things:
___________________________


1.) An attitude often resulting from looking at check book balances. (You younger generation may not know what this is, with all of the electronic banking going on.)
1.) My attitude is one of gratitude today when I look at the balance in my checking account. Even though it is steeply declining as the economy and inflation are eating up my money. Compared to a great many others, I am okay right now.

2.) Attitude of someone not seeing all of the possibilities of the moment.
2.) I gave up on being down and narrow minded and locked in to anything I said or took a position about earlier. I see possibilities and responsibilities of more than this change in my agreement with myself now. I see that the new information I can unexpectedly receive if I can just be open to it, is most helpful if accepted without some predeclared attitude.


3.) Something lower than something else.
3.) I have decided that my composters need to be elevated from being 'down there' so that I can maximize their production. I could not think of anything else I wanted to say for # 3. (Elevating them will allow me to recover the liquid fertilizer they produce, which I currently do not utilize.)



4.) From a higher to a lower place.
4.) The reason I have 8 ladders.

5.) Fine soft fluffy feathers.
5.) The real reason for writing this blog.
I am sending my pillow to the maker so it can be refurbished, cleaned and updated. This is what I wanted to say: "Yikes, I am going to miss it. They will have it for about a week plus shipping. I have the best pillow ever. It is small enough. It will wad up and be all wrinkled. It will lay out flat. It is usually cool on my neck when I lay down on it each night. It can muffle sound, absorb perspiration and show where I slobbered last night. I can fold it into half and it is as tall as I ever want it."

"I will be so happy to have it back."


So what does this have to do with taxicabs?

Not sure, except I never saw an adult get in my cab with their pillow to go to the airport for a trip away; only kids were free enough to desire their pillows stay with them. Damn, maybe I can relive my youth?

Cab fare is paid because I want you to think about just this, not struggle with thoughts from the other side of your brain...
