I do not often enough provide the balance that this family blog desparately needs. The voice of reason and reality. The one servicing all the strings, if not pulling them. I am enjoying my favorite season, though not getting nearly enough direct exposure. I had a lovely first 39th birthday, and so many friends and family reminding me how lucky I am. Angie, Victoria and I had a decadent though far too brief spa afternoon at Angie's mom's house on the McKenzie River...complete with hot tub and our own personal masseuse. I need to hang with these chicks more often. I was treated to gourmet appetizers and a relaxing evening at Pat and Karlann's on Saturday, and a family gathering at Sue's Sunday so I didn't have to cook much over the weekend. It sure is nice having someone cook for you. I'll have to remind the family of that more often ;-)
I also am looking forward to spending the first weekend of Oct with friends at the beach house. Happy Fall!!!



I am back into the routine of daily life

I am back into the routine of daily life. Having some time to sit and think during the morning makes a huge difference to the psyche. I am filling my social calendar with long neglected friends and a few trips to the longer neglected gym. I am looking out the front window from my warm living room at a blue sky and ice frosted vegetation...very peaceful. Time to decide what to make for dinner for this family plus Dave and Josh. If only I could send them out hunting like in the olden days ;-)
