I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

lazy Sunday. I was planning on going to church this morning, but the Foster puppy would not go down to sleep in a timely fashion. She cries and cries if left in the kennel while wanting to play.

So I missed church and went back to sleep once she fell asleep. Now mac is at work and I am puttering around the house getting a few things done while she bites at my pants' legs or when she is sleeping.

I just got her down asleep again, and I am going to run out for a quick store trip. I want to spray the yard for fleas and get a treatment or powder for all the dogs. They seem to get bad each summer, but we have avoided any infestation thus far - want to keep it that way, but we have new dogs at each neighbor, so more chances.

I'm in Iceland! And it's really much cooler. Also spending unspeakable amounts on good simple food (I found a local's bakery open at 6:45 on a Sunday and bought all their savory pastries, ummmm.) & alcohol. Because I AM traveling with family, after all.

It's all good. Even the hard is good, in a way.

I even rectified my family's housing debacle the first day with aplomb. It woulda gone really sideways if I'd left it to the others. Love em, but know 'em. Stories for me to tell.

ICELAND! I'm so jealous.

I ran with the dogs in the morning and then went to the gym, and then had really good poutine, and now I'm anxiously waiting for my pie to cool so I can go out to dinner. Cool, already!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

That sounds wonderful, sarameg. Have a great trip!

Our wings are not tired.

Iceland! Enjoy and share stories and pictures with us!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good thing you got things sorted, Sara. Have a great trip!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Glad to hear it, sarameg!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Jealous of the Iceland trip!

My cold is now on day 10. Coughing is exhausting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

For the last bunch of days, I've been waking up at 6 with anxiety in my body. Nothing in my head! I'm not worried about anything! But tell my stomach that. I'm over it.

Because books.

Body anxiety sucks. I realize I do it with my shoulders -- I'll be sitting and doing whatever and realize they're clenched.

Smart Buffista cooks -- can I substitute zucchini for green beans in a recipe where I'm roasting them in the oven with chicken drumsticks for 50 minutes? I have zucchini, but not green beans.
