Because, while waiting for me to take him to school this morning, Morgan the Grandson, looked across the room at me and said, "Mama, when I am school and I think about you...I miss you." What a darlin'!

- Just back from May Madness dance weekend: great music and dancing, and so good to see old friends.
- Feet don't hurt!
- Came home to find we got into Harvest Moon dance weekend this fall.
- Last but definitely not least: start a new job today - don't have to move, or deal with a huge job search, etc., etc. and finally begin spending half time with my husband (the other half is 500 hundred miles away with my son).

I got these photos from my daughter on vacation in Florida.

She actually sent them a couple of days ago, but I had to get her permission to post them.

Today is a good day because I woke up to baby smiles. Jeremiah was all giggly and smiley this morning....telling me stories, talking to me (he loves to say aaahhhh geeee in the sweetest little voice I've ever heard in my life and will answer back if I say it too and just SMILE SMILE SMILE).

*big contented sigh* Waking up to baby smiles is one of THE BEST things EVER!!!!!!!

Susan, you weren't wishing Veronica a 4-year pregnancy, were you! I've heard one or 2 mothers say 9 months was far too long.

I made a little progress on a very silly project: To rewrite the definitions in Quine's _Mathematical Logic_ as Elisp programs, and thereby, eventually, to write out "1+1=2" in his canonical language (nothing but "is a member of", "nor", and parentheses), which he says "would run to a length of many pages".

my family are in Amsterdam, and I have had the telly to myself, no whinging, arguing or fighting. Just peace and quite.

I have so far been able to see England beat Pakistan in the cricket test match, Fomula 1 Grand Pricks, Arsenal against Celtic, World Speedway Final, Athletics European Championships, and will finish up watching the final of the Football in Portugal where Benfica play Aston Villa.

On top of that I have made my own breakfast, Lunch and Dinner (with a nice bottle of wine all to myself)

Vacumed the house, done the shopping, Emptied the dishwasher and loaded and done a new wash.

I even managed to get a 30 minute kip.

Oh almost forgot, I did manage a shower etc.

It has been wonderful :-)

Having said all that, I do miss em. :-)

Today is a good day because I got to sleep in and wake up when *I* was ready to get up, I finished a good book, spent a leisurely morning with my family and we took Jeremiah to our favorite local park.....his first visit! We had a picnic, did some people watching and checked out the water.

I had a six month check-up with the kidney specialist, today, who is very happy with my coming back from the "brink" so to speak (protein blood level went from 5.8 to 1.8 which is vast improvement!) I've lost ten pounds since he saw me last and still losing, plus exercising on a consistent basis which he says will help bring down the protein levels in my bloodwork even more which is GOOD for my kidneys! So, I am to do more of the same and I am giving thanks!! Plus the itching I've been having is probably due to the calcium supplement, NOT the kidneys, so I will stop taking that and hope to feel more relief!

For a day which started out with someone killing a cat with their car in front of our house, this one, for me, is turning out pretty good. (Said some blessings for the poor kitty.)

You spoke too soon. Richard Bridge started this one. Ever notice how all the religion threads at Mudcat, are started by people who hate religion?
Those of us who are religious, would rather not impose our religion on others.

Well, today turned out to be a good day because I made a terrific salad for dinner that has pasta shells, ham, peas, carrots, celery, mayonnaise & spices, Parmesan cheese, and a secret ingredient - wasabi.
Ah, it was delicious on a hot day.

Today is a good day because my hippie best friend is coming to visit me in Bristol from the Isle of Wight. We have been great friends for 16 years + and when he comes over we go out on his motorbike, we don't plan where we are going so it is quite an adventure.

Not so good for my sons they worry.

I have my favorite nephew for five days and one of the first things he wanted to do was go to a bookstore. The book he wanted isn't out in paperback yet (although I would have bought him the hardcover), but he found two others he thinks he might like. I am very proud of him, he loves to read even though he has severe dyslexia and it takes him a long time to read a book.

- The sun came for a little while.

- I had a great chat with a young park visitor about our osprey and the forest ecosystem.

- When I put the battery back in the park utility vehicle after having sat for the winter, it immediately started on the first try.
