dogBuddy slept in his crate again last night. The rain woke me up at 4:30, so I got up to close the windows. The cats were hungry, so I gave them some food. Buddy heard the crunchies hit the bowls and decided to get out of his crate. The sound of crunchies usually means he's about to get food, too ( Read more... )

I still need practice, apparently, but can count on you to keep giving me more. Love, SaraThe lilacs started to bloom today. I smelled lilacs for the first time this spring. Glorious. I wonder if I get ( Read more... )

Came home from work after 2 hours because I was too tired and scatterbrained to type or think. I was supposed to be compiling an outline of a grant application, the bones of it we would later flesh out. I've done dozens of times and I just couldn't get it together.

Yesterday was lovely. Jeff and Adam did all the driving, much gratitude. I remembered to wear something casual for the 3-hour drive and change into my fancy dress when we stopped for lunch just before the ceremony. Added bonus: having something to change into after the reception as well. Comfy for the ride home ( Read more... )

Last night some women came over to knit and eat. We got started around 7 and I think everyone left near 11. I had a lovely time. Hopefully we'll do it again soon.
