Just a quickie
June 26, 2008hmmm, Busy day already for some of us.
Not me!
Jan and the kids (sans Kate) mowed.
I was told to sit! I minded well.
I painted the stone on the Sedona piece and finished it.
They mowed and then Jan decided to get more sweaty
and remove a tree root that was dislodging a lower patio
stone. Nice!! I have been meaning to get to that problem.
I listened to music and hosted the people taking a break
from the heat. Nice to have visitors in the studio.
Here it is finished…. looking more orange than real life.
I am finished. Just need to seal the grout tonight and I’ll
ship tomorrow. A day early damn it!

Jan and I cut Zoe’s leg fur late last night.
She is a cocker and her legs were very long now and matting.
Brushing her often is not something my son will even think to do!
By the time we got home, she would be matted big time.
So we shaved her legs LOL. She loved every moment of it.
Gave us kisses all the while. Weird. We imagine she has been feeling
left out of the process with Teddy and wanted that attention for herself.
When we were finished she strutted her stuff for an hour.
Just so happy to be cooler. She is just the best dog.
—————————
Everyone is showering and we are meeting Kate at 2 to go and buy
a few last minute trip needs for Hilary. We must also get water shoes
for the marshes as we kayak, and those swim suit bottoms for Jan.
Kate just wanted to come along to be with us. She is changing before
our eyes. It’s amazing to live through.
Not much else trip prep to do. Just wash the car and pack tomorrow.
Jan is in charge of medications, toiletries and car prep.
So I am finished anyway!
The rest of today will be a fun and lazy day spent with my girls.
Sounds great to me. John Paul said no thanks on the shopping thing!
Have a great Thursday all.
How many more days?
Count with me… TWO!!

















That piece is just amazing!
I want to go on a holiday, but by myself. Is that wrong? LOL!
I knew it was going to fabulous Annie & I was right - I love the Sedona piece! So glad it is finished. And you did a remarkable job.
Gosh I cannot believe you leave in two days - WOW!
How exciting. I really love road trips & wish I was doing just that! Though at times I wish it was alone & a one way journey! I am sure you can appreciate where I am coming from! I guess we all get that way from time to time.
I am so excited for you & Jan. I hope you have a wonderful time - I really do!
Nate & I are FLU ridden, yep the winter blues have hit! Got to love all that comes with it! - NOT
Anyways have a great weekend and magnificent holiday. Take care out there on the road!

Oh thanks Shaney!! I do love it too.
I was also just paid for it!
Gotta love that pay*pal.
No waiting to be paid.
I do totally understand the urge sometimes to not
come back from those road trips!
I have actually done that twice in my life.
Oh I always sent someone back to settle my affairs,
pack the house, but I have literally gone on two
trips and decided once there that I wanted to stay.
(neither ended up being good choices!)
This was before mortgages and the like.
Such freedom no longer exists in my world.
Which is probably a good thing, what with
all my middle age angst!!
Feel Better! Tell Nate I said as much please.
Take care of each other.
(Roxy, Nope it’s not wrong at all!)
LOL @ paypal comment! Well I just hope you got paid lots & lots. It sure is worth it!
Well if I was somewhat closer I would invite you around for a cuppa so we could chit chat about your road trips of times gone by. *winks*
Hehe…I am sure your mid life adventure will be just fine Miss Annie, I mean you have all the splendor in a loving partner, wonderful family and some pretty neat friends by the looks. *smiles*
Nate says Thank you for the get well wish as do I!
Again have a wonderful wonderful time and will look forward to your return.
May all that is be yours and then some!
hugs
