Good morning my DU family,

Carly Simon sang Anticipation, with that beautiful voice of hers and gave it it's proper introduction to the world along with the all time great Heinz Ketchup commercial as well.

Most of the time, it's a beautiful mental space to be in, anticipating a special date, anniversary, or just a paycheck or upcoming vacation.

It is so nice to be in that mindset, I'm going to visit my sister today, and that's what I've been feeling.

It's so nice not to have life be on hold in every way, so maybe I'm just overjoyed to be experiencing something most of us take for granted again.

Please give us a day filled with moments of anticipation, knowing in our hearts, that that means hope, upcoming happy moments, and some opportunities to experience things that bring us joy and fun.

Have a wonderfully eventful day DU,
Love, John
