*Let me get the sleep comment out of the way first. Got to bed earlier (drugged, of course) and it worked out that I got approximately one extra hour in under my belt. Feeling pretty good, considering I initially woke up at around 5:15am. What's up with these Pugs?
*Went to our neighborhood association meeting last night---always interesting. I'm in charge of selecting the yard-of-the-month, and have a good time making folks happy. When they get kudos on a job well-done, it's rewarding for me to be able to plunk a sign in their yard saying so. Which reminds me...must fertilize tomato plants today. For sure.
*Anyway, all's well. I don't have anywhere go to during the daylight hours, but am taking some of the kids to the Shane and Shane concert at a local church after dinner. Looking forward to that, let me tell you. Love their music.
*Maybe will re-caulk the porch window today. Or putzy round and tidy the house (a better idea). Have been in a mental funk for about a week and need to tend to the nest here. It's wretched in places. And the truth is, if I get it tidy, my outlook is more perky.
*Can hear some distant thunder, but it's not supposed to rain until tomorrow. Sounds pretty, though. (added later---turns out it wasn't thunder, but an across-the-street neighbor who was dragging a heavy couch to the curb to be picked up by the garbage guys---thunder sounded so much cozier, but I was just plain wrong!)
*Reading a couple of really good ones...the one listed to the side called It Happened in Italy, and The Lost Choice by Andy Andrews. Enjoying both very much. (Update: finished the Andrews book and while it began interestingly enough, began to drag in my opinion, toward the middle...they needed to get on with it!)
*Must be off now. The house awakes. Darn!
