Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They met when she was in high school and he was working on the McCain campaign. He's Richard Nixon's grandson, her father owns the biggest local NYC grocery store chain. He called her pretty much as soon as she turned 18, and now they are getting married since she's 21. Apparently. He's 31 or some shit.

I have no food in the house, as we were gone all weekend, but it was very nice.

I got to plunk my camp chair down in a spring-fed creek, under a big shade tree all day Saturday, and drink margaritas.

Then I hung out with friends on their fabulous new wrap-around deck and watched the sunset, and hummingbirds fight (they are aggressive little bastards.)

There was lots of food and sunshine.

It was very nice!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Erin - sounds like a perfect summer weekend.

I did alot of knitting on the cotton(mix) short-sleeved sweater I'm working on but still have about 4.5 inches of stockinette to do before I hit the lace part. (I knitted while watching my GoT marathon.)

CJ has been out of school for a couple of weeks and I am already starting to get "new school year info" e-mails from the high school. Yikes. His first day is August 8th.

One of my co-workers got summer homework for her daughter in the mail last week.

Excellent memoir from one of Seattle Slew's early trainers. Makes me want to go look for video of Seattle Slew passaging in a post-parade on youtube.

sumi -- It was very nice; very chill. And there was a ton of delicious food, and my friend's new addition and deck are fan-freaking-tastic.

This is going to be a busy writing week, but then it should calm down and then I will be able to concentrate on the website -- finally.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

So ... I am in need of (even more) advice from the hivemind. When should I get involved in the little spats between the girls? They are 7, 6, and 4. The spats seem to revolve around who plays what role and how in whatever pretend game that they are playing. I'm trying to keep my distance and let them figure it out themselves. Em needs this skill. Her current ethod of coping is to stomp her feet, scream at them, and start crying. Then she runs away and pouts. I say this will all the love in my heart, but my word she is her mother's daughter.

But every so often, the 7 year old gets really bossy and snotty and I totally want to step in and play momma bear. But I know that won't help Emeline figure out how to operate in a group.
