1. A long visit with a good friend (40+ years) whois moving out of state soon.
2. Lunch at Eatzi’s. Just a sandwich but amazing. I haven’t eaten at Eatzi’s in a few years.
3. Ruby’s first day of school. She stayed all day. No emergency calls. Spending the night with a friend. = 100% success.
4. Max applied for his first job. At Calloway’s (nursery). They start hiring for the fall in a couple of weeks. He filled out an app, talked briefly to an assistant manager. Now we wait.
5. Organizing and selling a few household items. (Kids’ puzzles today.) It’s never too early to re-home stuff.
And you? What made you happy today? I’d love to hear.
1. Got a running start on my paper for the conference. Wordle of Belonging. Stay tuned. Creative team started. Timeline sketched out. Thinking about thinking really is my favorite hobby.
2. Spectacular clouds mid afternoon in Dallas. Every square inch of the blue dome was covered with Something Else. It was amazing.
3. Tiniest Texas anole I think I’ve ever seen. Maybe the size of my little finger. And quick! He was gone as fast as he came into view.
1. Mid-morning cuppa with a friend from the 70s. That’s a long friendship. New and wonderful location. @Well Grounded, a newish oasis on Garland Road near White Rock Lake.
2. Lunch with other friends at Zoe’s on Lovers Lane. They have really high “walls” on the booths so it’s like a little private room.
3.I even got in a quick swim today. Other People’s Pools: a great idea.
4. Some puzzle time left before the sun goes down and the light is gone.
5. The clouds look like special effects these days.
