Silly made my day stuff. I was out in the yard dead heading my rose bushes when the mailman came by. I asked him if he would like a rose for a loved one and the way his face lit up was so beautiful. He thanked me profusely, but seriously, his smile was more than enough thanks. I gave him one of my most fragrant yellow/pink ones.
Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Glad to hear the promising news, msbelle!
I scored tomatoes from the really good vendor at today's farmers market, as well as little cucumbers, big green onions, and honeysuckle cookies. Rather than eat any of that I'm off to have Indian for lunch, and then take my mom out to see A Quiet Place II in the theater (the first time she'll have been in many months).

I got to go DANCING tonight!!! It was amazing and exhausting and my feet hurt and my shoulders were tired (apparently I’ve not had to hold up my arms for multiple minutes at a time, like you do when partner dancing, this pandemic??) plus got to see friends and even when I wasn’t dancing, just be super happy to watch other people dancing. Yay. It was a one-off event at the ballroom, vaccinated only, limited capacity. But so good. Even walking home in the pouring rain with friends who live in the neighborhood was so nice.
Fantastic! Between your injury and the Pandemic you've been kept too far away from something you love so much.
Glad on the good news, msbelle.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Quiet day here. I did the weekly grocery run while Gary and Mr. S got haircuts.

The status is NOT quo.
Yay, promising news!

msbelle, I'm glad the news on your mom is promising.
meara, yay dancing!

Weirdly ltc and TCG also got haircuts today, and then they went to my in-law's house and the park with them. I had the whole day to myself in a quiet house!

msbelle- that news sounds promising. I am putting off looking at my mammogram until Monday. I am a terrible person.
David/JZ- The worst surgery I have had yet was my wisdom teeth, which wasn’t;t that bad. May Matilda experience the same.
GUYS- I saw In The Heights in a theatre, with my mom! It was good, I recommend it even with quibbles, but I think it is a theatre movie. Also, the first time I have seen my mom since December 2019!

I just got back from watching In the Heights! I also enjoyed it with some minor quibbles. But I thought the transition from theater to film was well done.

I may go see In the Heights tomorrow with a friend! And today was Rory’s first birthday! He is 1! Not my babydog anymore he’s a real boy! We had a party with friends at the dog park and he ate a pup cake and tried to eat the birthday hat and generally seemed to have a good time.
