Tuesday Afternoon Catch Up

I am literally writing this while walking the river in the beautiful sun during mid-afternoon. It makes me walk slower. But, it also helps me to take advantage of the serenity and splendor found here.

Every time I am at the river I wonder why the hell I stopped.

I am so incredibly fortunate to be surrounded by friends who remind me it was a busy year, I'm doing a lot and yes, I am taking comfort in food while other parts of my life are chaotic.

Amen friends. Amen.

Bella's lacrosse team played their last lacrosse game of the season on Saturday. I was at the salon and missed it; they lost.

Peter played his last HS baseball game on Sunday. I actually went. I witnessed his phenomenal roll, catch, and throw! I saw them win. Next up, the summer league.

We are VERY excited about our Cast Party AKA the Grand Reopening of the salon with Kathy and I as the owners. Come one, come all, bring your friends and have a spectacular time.

It is week nine at the salon. And yes, it is getting easier every day. This week, the bathroom is under renovation. Jimmy hung the mirror for the many six foot tall women who work there...

Thankfully he is completing that project over the weekend and the mirror will be lowered.

I took yesterday morning off from all things with a screen. I cannot emphasize what a difference it makes to hold a book in your hands and read it until the end. It is truly good for the soul.

I ignored the chirp from the cell phone and the real phone. My kids have distinctive rings and of course, I would have answered them, but everyone and everything could wait.

My glasses are STILL not ready which is why you are dealing with the web silence.

Over the weekend several people commented to me that they either read the blog when they first woke up or before they went to bed. One friend reads it out loud to her husband. THAT is humbling.

Thank you.
For sticking around here.
For sharing in my stories.
For reading the blog to your spouse.
For commenting.

All love on a Tuesday afternoon. 
(And yes, I am home from the river for a couple of hours now!)
THIS. IS. AWESOME.
Josh is my pick to win The Voice tonight.
(I listened to it while I was writing this blog...)

When laying with you I could stay there, 
Close my eyes, feel you here forever, 
You and me together, nothing gets better.

My pick for the winner too.

And for the record I read your blog everyday, mostly in the mornings. It starts my day off with a positive flow. It is part of my morning routine.

THANK YOU, Bonnie!
I am sitting here waiting for The Voice to conclude, hopefully with Josh as the winner.
When the glasses show up I will write more frequently!
