Cue the Plague of Locusts…
That's what was going through my mind on Sunday morning. Actually, my first thought was "Are you f***king KIDDING me?" Because after all the stuff with Mom's surgery, and she's doing great, BTW, I felt like life was a whirl of crazy craziness. I had walked down to the dock late Saturday night, the 4th of July, to watch a few fireworks even though I wasn't sure I'd have the energy to make it back up the hill, and I felt at peace, with the lapping water and the cool-ish breeze and the fireworks exploding in the distance.

DON’T BE DUMB. plus beautiful orchid blooms

Early birthday morning
I woke up at 5:50 this morning, and without my glasses on I could just make out the rising sun and decided to get up and go outside and look at it. Because it's my birthday, I thought it would be a...

May 2nd, the first family of geese! I think there were about 10 babies. Kevin and I took a wonderful kayak ride that morning. I don't know why I didn't take pictures during our trip; we paddled all...
A Unique Biathlon plus lots of crazy Saturday
Last Saturday, May 8th, it occurred to me that Kevin and I had taken part in what I decided was a biathlon that I'm sure nobody else on the planet did. We've created a new type of biathlon! It won't...
More from April
I was so excited to get my new iphone a couple of weeks ago. I had a 6s+, which was about four years old and had started randomly shutting off for no reason, plus, of course, the new phones has...
April Excitement
Ok, "excitement" might be stretching it a bit. Or maybe a lot. But I happened to see a great italian greyhound door mat on facebook and had to buy it for Amy and Jim. Maybe it's a regular greyhound...
