Saturday stuff

Took Lucy to the vet this morning for HER check up and left a house payment! Spent the day doing errands until I was in the middle of the Costco parking lot when the sky opened up. I was soaked to the point I had to come home and changed. Even my socks and shoes were wet. Have not been home in so many Saturdays and not home next weekend that I booked the whole day out catching up. It is what it is and it was a great day! Yesterday's wedding was absolutely amazing. Beautiful bride and family. The reception was the absolute "end". Every detail was perfection! Thanks to my amazing piano teacher and her family.

Home Again Home Again, Jiggity Jig!

After flying all day Monday,  Delta delivered and I was pretty glad to see wheels down in the D.  The flights were all amazing, the weather was bright blue sky and I windowed it all the way home with a 4 hour layover in Minneapolis, one book down and many photos.  lt turned out to be a late night (East Coast time), but  I was finally able to sleep about midnight because the next 3 days were spent in math class. I have been to the Dermatologist, the dentist (for regular check and the root canal filling), physical, flu shot, blood draw and EKG.   Ready to tackle the year. The Dr. told me I was in pretty good shape for my age.   What the hell does that mean????   He usually comes in the back door with comments. Looking forward to some sleep tonight but feel pretty caught up on the "jet lag"  and time adjustment.  First day in class I about dropped off several times! Monday is our first day  BTS and we have 3 days of PD.  Have not...

Atlantic to Pacific...Coast to Coast

So, after I wrote this a couple of days ago, I accidentally deleted the entire post and am calmed down enough to start again! A week ago today I left Boston after spending a week with Brian & Andrew doing what we do best.  Walking, eating, cooking, eating seafood, watching a lot of tv (Olympics), laughing, staying up late and just enjoying the week. Our favorite activity is our trip to Ogunquit, Maine, on the Atlantic Ocean.   We ate our lobster rolls (sans Andrew who is allergic) , spent the whole afternoon just sitting on the beach watching the tide roll in and roll out, snacking and sharing stories.  All too soon it was time to go back to Boston.  We spent the evening checking out homes for sale by the ocean, (on tv).   I did lots of walking, through the parks, neighborhoods, took the T to Cambridge, had long lunches with Andrew (Chicken & Rice Guys), and Brian in Cambridge.  I shopped locally, hit the farmer's market for produce, Brian made l...

August ....wait, what?

Oh what a week or turmoil.   Started the month with an emergency root canal on Monday.   Could not have been worse!   Over an hour on this one and had a bbq to attend so all I could do was drink some wine and take Motrin.  Tuesday was a little better because I had my peeps here for lunch and continued with the Motrin 800.  Wednesday, my face started to swell in the lymph nodes of my jaw line so I had to go on an anti-biotic.   First math class of the summer and spent two days with a miserable mouth.  It felt like my tooth was too big for my mouth.  Today, the jaw swelling started again so back to the Endodontist I went!   Seems that the infection "falls" into the lymph nodes and it takes a few days to settle down.   Math class is over, I have lunch with friends tomorrow and fly day on Saturday...Boston here I come!   Andrew and Brian and me (is it me or I???) are going to Ogunquit on Sunday for our summer lobster rolls and beach fix...
