These past few weeks have been crazy. I have been doing so much and seeing so many people that I have hardly had the time to sit back and catch my breath. Between my brother coming to stay for a few days, a friend in from Dublin, starting school, and some other big surprises, I really have felt quite out of it and not entirely myself. Russ and I seem to have gotten out of the habit of doing ‘things’ and have turned into even bigger homebodies than ever before.
In my (very little) spare time I have been working on painting. The class I am taking at school is another painting course, so I have lots of time every week, both at home and at school, to work on my paintings.
Somehow through all the madness Russ took a day off from work so we could go to the Del Mar races. Here is a snapshot from before the races started.
Currently I am trying to get back in the swing of things. I have ignored my garden for quite a bit, and it really needs some tending to. I have put off baking bread for several weeks, and greatly miss the smell of fresh bread filling the house. I also need to get back in the habit of cooking our own meals. We have been getting take out several times a week just because it is so easy. Hopefully in the coming weeks I can start to get my life back to a more normal state.
