You guys, I am entertaining in my home. I do not remember the last time I did this. It is so fun. I pretty much remember how to do this!
(Well, except for the part where you take your phone and sneak away for a sec to post to your glowy box friends. But I'm not sorry about it.)

Look at you with the socialization and gracious hosting!
Personally I'm a little over socialized this week. Went to Zazie twice in the last week. So switched things up with my Fancy Brunch friend, Jes, and instead we had dinner and drinks at Whitechapel (gin bar with Jack the Ripper theme), and then Zombie Village (super elaborate tiki bar) whilst we talked for four hours.
Then took visiting college friends to the Pied Piper bar Thursday night (with its original Maxfield Parrish painting), and rounded off with burritos with Emmett & Kalena yesterday.
Now I'm waiting for Matilda to wake up and JZ to return from church with a round of coffee for all.
Both of my kids are traveling next week. Emmett's flying to Oklahoma for Maggie the Girl's wedding. Matilda's friend Iris is going to Palm Springs for three days, and invited Matilda to join them. (Which is why Matilda went shopping for super sugar kicks.)
Timelies all!
Yesterday we went to Gary's Alumni Weekend. I only knew one other person there, so it was a bit awkward for me. Did a crab cake luncheon(decent food), a lacrosse game(it was cold and windy and someone insisted on sitting at the top of the bleachers, so I was freezing out there) and a 30th reunion dinner(Since there were no Alumni Weekends in 2020 and 2021, they included the classes of 1990 and 1991 along with 1992.) Not really my idea of fun, but I did agree to do it...
I have been at a dance event all weekend, which has been weird but fun. But omg my body is out of this habit. I have sore spots on my feet and all my muscles hurt, and I didn’t even dance as much as I used to!! But I’m really really hoping we don’t get another wave that cancels the next event that’s happening in May, it’s my favorite and I really want everyone to come and not have to wear masks (most people this weekend aren’t but some are, and I have been just because I’ve got plans to travel next weekend and it would be v bad timing!)
I was a recluse in the before times, mostly doing things with Maria. Maria has become more of a recluse, and does not want to do anything. We went for a walk on the beach two weeks ago.
Last week, though, I WENT TO A PLAY. It was with folks from work and it was so amazing. The play itself was just OK, but I was in a theatre with people, which is what theatre is. We haven’t had that for awhile.
Mmmmm, socializing. The guy we are staying with goes Salsa dancing weekly at a local casino. They have lessons and stuff. He has a blast. I may go with him. I told him I seem to lack the salsa gene, but who knows.
Made a trip over to see my sister today to see if she needed anything. My other sister arrives for a visit on the 30th. Easier to make a day round trip as I am at least a half hour closer. Took 1 hr 40 min to get here, which is easier for a day trip.
Brain still going non-stop so I ordered a sleep headband with bluetooth speakers and downloaded some sleep meditations and music. Hope it helps. My sleep scores have sucked for weeks.
Now that you have the house and boat stuff squared away (congratulations!), perhaps sleep will be a little easier, Laura.
I’m glad Prubs came thru ok.
Man, you can just see Kenneth Branagh's head swelling to the point that it might lift him off the stage...
