Sundays

I love quiet Sundays.....I look forward to being at home, reading the newspaper, and relaxing......no pressures....just me and Walt (with the doggies of course) hanging out at home.

I'm hoping this next week goes by quickly. I hate to rush time, but I am really looking forward to seeing my friend Elena and her husband Frank. It's been almost a year since we've seen them. It's kind of a long drive, but that's 1/2 the fun. Walt and I need some alone time to talk and reconnect.

I've never been to Fresno...not that I think I am missing anything in particular. Except that is where Elena lives. Its something new for us....as I don't think Walt has ever been to Fresno either. I love the drive down Oregon and into California. What's funny, is that at the end of October, we'll make basically the same trip.

I'm feeling overly sensitive though.....worried and fretful over things I can't control. The actions of another are not within my control...and to worry is for not. I can't help how I am though. I drive myself crazy.....I have to think positive and focus on things that are within my own control.

Looking forward: Cruise in October....will be a much needed vacation; the holidays.....will be especially special since they are our last here; cruise to Alaska in May for our anniversary; the summer; and then WV....busy year ahead of us.

Posted a recent picture of Oscar....hope he's still hanging out tomorrow when I get to work.....

I'm thankful for: forgiveness; my blessings; loving friends; opportunities; getaways; puppies; not being alone; love......
