Happy Mother’s Day
Actually, my Mother’s Day was all weekend. I started on Saturday by sleeping in. Rich got up with Sascha to put her out, but that was just his excuse to go fishing. It was a beautiful morning and he had made bait the night before. He was ready for this. I woke up to no […]

Trip to Southern Indiana
I recently went home to Southern Indiana. Rick had his plans fall through, so he joined me. The drive down was good. Even going through India No Polis on the day before the big race wasn’t too bad. We arrived in the late afternoon. I gave Rick his choice of things to go and do […]

Mother’s Day is for flowers
Traditionally, Mother’s Day is the day I start my planting for the season. I make it easy on the guys and just ask that they buy the flowers I plant on that day. Here, I have flower boxes on the deck that I plant in every year. I didn’t realize until this year that Rick’s […]

So it is officially winter here. We have the gentle buzz of snowmobiles out on the river. The last week has been very cold and the river finally froze over solid enough for the steady stream of machines to be buzzing up and down that temporary highway.We went out to dinner this evening and then […]

Cincy Blues Fest 2012 Day 2: Up Close
Those days when you can sleep are so nice. For me, that meant sleeping in to 7:00. Sascha wasn’t there with a wet nose and the alarm wasn’t trying to tell me something. Now if the housekeeper doesn’t try to roust me out before I’m good and ready, it will be glorious. I think the […]

Recap of this week (June 17, 2012)
It was another hot one today. The last few days have been really adding up the heat. I think it’s Thursday evening now before they say it will be better. I like summer and the heat, but I’m really getting worried about what July will bring if it’s in the 90s now. I did voluntarily […]

Just another day in the life of me
This was a pretty good week for me. The other day, I was standing in my closet trying to figure out what I felt like wearing. I usually dress based on my feelings. I guess I’m lucky that my job doesn’t require me to dress for business. I thought about my friend, Ramya, and decided […]

Lazy Sunday around here
I knew keeping a blog would be hard. Unless I’m actively planning or doing something, I don’t think that the rest of my life has much to talk about. So here’s a run down of what’s been happening here. Friday was Rick’s last day of spring break. We don’t normally go anywhere or do anything […]

Spring has sprung
So repeat after me: Spring has sprung The grass is riz Wonder where the flowers is? I can say that over the last couple of days, it has begun to sound and smell like spring out there. I stood in the doorway this morning and listened to all of the birds singing while I waited […]
