Happy today because my wildflower seeds are sprouting.

Life is good!I am happy today because the sun is shining, it's warm enough to open the doors & windows, & I got a lot of spring cleaning done (no more Eau de Hound--lol). No one is fighting, The Man is making something that smells fabulous for dinner, and I have a good book to finish tonight (Duma Key). Smiles all around
Perhaps a wee bit of time is good for the soul Grandpa! (Absence makes the heart grow fonder and all that )Because people are paying for my stay at a nice hotel this week so that they can pay me a good-sized chunk of change to provide services to them. Affirming and profitable. Yay. And the drive here (they pay mileage too) was clear and uneventful.
(Of course, the downside is that Grandma and I are in separate tables and beds this week.)
Love Mary Roach books and On Writing is my favorite SK book. If I could have him sign one book, it would be my copy of On Writing with my colored tabs marking pages and my scribbles in the margins.Speaking of which... I'm gone for a week, so I was packing, tossed in the two current books I'm looking at, and it just looked funny to me (the non-SK one), especially given that I'm on business in the Nebraska Panhandle. So I had to take a shot of it, cuz that's how I roll. Even if it's just a phone camera.

Whatever happened with this? Everything working out well?They are half-sisters from North Carolina. My sister and her husband live in Charlotte so they didn't have to go far! Luckily too the girls are healthy and have no mental or emotional problems. (Sadly, a lot of children in the adoption system are not as lucky.) I just can't wait to meet these two! I'm hoping they can make it to our Memorial Day picnic!
