Well. What a difference a day makes. Yesterday’s sweetly sunny breezes have been so rudely shoved aside by the meanest of bullies (for those of us with curly hair) – humidity, ack, in the form of dark, heavy stillness. Dank. Oppressive. It brings, I’ll admit, much-needed rain. OK. Then rain already and move on outta…

My aunt Mary, Stace, Bowen, and Coop are coming for dinner tonight – woo hoo! Mary’s here for a two-day conference so is spending the night. We’re all heading over to Nathan’s baseball game for a bit, then back here for sauteed artichokes with grilled bread, and cold, crispy radishes with smoked salt, followed by…

OK, I’m back, I’m here, I’m my normal self. Except I did need a 15-minute nap today (and yesterday). And now I feel extra great. Yes, it’s amazing (or not) what two good nights of sleep in a row can do for a grrrl, rrrarrrr, I’m ready to go. Sheesh. Two and 1/2 days to…

Experiencing some post-Manhattan, post-Minxing blues… Gosh, we had so much fun, and as great as it is to be home, it’s just not…vacation. You know? It’s pretty wonderful to be in the company of amazing women, who clean up as they go along, actively listen to anything you have to say, make you laugh constantly,…

We’re back!!! We had an amazing time, truly amazing. We arrived Thursday afternoon and opened with a Nathan’s Famous hot dog with kraut, right there at the airport. After cleaning various mustard mishaps off of our hands and clothes, we excitedly cabbed it to Dot and John’s beautiful apartment, where they generously let us stay…

Suz, Kim, and I are outta here tomorrow morning, staying at my in-laws’ apartment in Manhattan. Dinner with Dot and…

I’m having a passionate affair…with, of all things…eggs. Eggs! I loathed eggs as a child, actively loathed them. I would gag to watch people eat them. Cry to smell them cooking. Shrink in horror from the sight or description of them combined with another loathesome food…cheeeeese. My mom would reminisce fondly about the wonderful tasties…

Nathan officially opened summer vaca with a rock climbing class this a.m. He really enjoyed it. Then he’s off to basketball later this afternoon. We keep him pretty busy in the summers, moving around, doing new and challenging things. It means alot of driving around, but within a pretty small area, so it’s worth it….

Got in a good KBs workout while John was at the club and Nathan walked Sigmund. Soon Nathan and I are off for a lunch of Chinese, followed by X-Men III. John, I guess he’ll chill out here at the hacienda, working or reading. We’ll gather back here this evening for a dinner of garlic…

Sinful Saturday morning, just John and me, hanging, reading, drinking coffee, listening to tunes, chatting…we even had artichokes, garlic toast, and a bit of sauteed ham for brunch. NICE! Eventually I’ll move on to some form of exercise, a shower, and Nathan’s baseball game… But not quite yet. No swimming today, it’s downright chilly out…
