Now that it has cooled down and we've had some rain, I think I need to cut the grass. I also want to finish hanging pictures this weekend.<br /><br />Check your email!!equeyayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497281107599857326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122471343312326996.post-83371046640269053812011-08-12T15:04:17.527-07:002011-08-12T15:04:17.527-07:00equeyaya, i hear you on the silence! I have loved ...equeyaya, i hear you on the silence! I have loved when i had the opportunity to read outside on my patio with no music or outside noise. I love reading in silence more than i used to. But when the screaming meemie brats are out there, the remote speakers come out. And that is the case right now - i have Patti Griffith playing while i get ready to pour a glass of chardonnay and read outside. (I get off early on Fridays and it's a beautiful day!) <br /><br />You sound so great! You'll have to write me about the poconos! <br /><br />I am reading a lovely book, and i don't ever use the word 'lovely', but i do in this case. I LOVE the book Cutting for Stone. Had no idea i would like it so much. I don't often go for novels that are with other cultures and countries and tend to stick to family kind of novels, the more f*cked the family, the better. But i loved The Kite Runner and House of Sand and Fog and never expected to. So i gave it a try. <br /><br />There is a 17th follower to this blog and i'm trying to figure out who it is. I wish you would post, 27th follower! And the 26th follower too! <br /><br />Happy vacation, Barbara!jojo cucina cucinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801083378294299891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122471343312326996.post-75629176746001252282011-08-11T20:12:09.642-07:002011-08-11T20:12:09.642-07:00music: silence... i've been doing that more n...music: silence... i've been doing that more now. i think i'm in a better place in my head that i'm not always looking for music to calm me down anymore.<br /><br />best thing that happened this week: getaway last weekend to the poconos.<br /><br />book: still the hunger games... haven't had a lot of time for reading.<br /><br />procrastinating: lots of work stuff. i feel like i am in a rut at work.<br /><br />accomplished: got the blinds put up on the upstairs windows. the house is coming together.<br /><br />randomnessssssss.......<br /><br />1. i feel like my life is settling into a good place. there is still uncertainty and drama and anxiety and stress. but somehow i feel better equipped to deal with it. i think i finally feel like a grown up.<br /><br />2. i still am so thankful for my friends and the support they have given me. but i am beginning to feel more self reliant.<br /><br />3. i'm glad the temperature and humidity has dropped.<br /><br />4. even as i don't know what the future will bring, i'm excited to find out.<br /><br />5. i am procrastinating a lot at work and there are a lot of worries and a lot of issues. but when i focus on the day to day and talking and connecting with people, i feel like i'm in a good place.<br /><br />6. i love my girls for who they are. i'm proud of them for their individuality and their perseverance. they are cool, interesting people who make the world a better place.<br /><br />7. facebook has forced its "groups" that are in an old format to update. somehow this has caused the group from my hometown to become very active. it's so funny to see so many people, most of whom i have no idea who they are, posting about all of these old places i remember and things that happened. very cool.<br /><br />8. things like that are why i stay on facebook.<br /><br />9. umma<br /><br />10. i kept going because i wanted to do a 9. umma post. it's been a while.<br /><br />11. of course i can always find more things to say.<br /><br />12. but for now i won't. <br /><br />13. tomorrow is another day.<br /><br />14. i will be on vacation tomorrow and monday, doing stuff around the house.<br /><br />15. happy weekend, everyone!equeyayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497281107599857326noreply@blogger.com
