Greetings all

More sun and blue sky. The big Kinetic Sculpture race is this weekend. Check it out on you tube or something. It is a hoot. We are too lazy to fight the crowds to go to the start but have done it in the past. Very artsy and silly. There was one sculpture that was a giant pink pony that blew bubbles out its butt.

So Peps, final final. Enjoy and prepare for a whole new world of fun. Congrats on a great career.

DD I too would not turn back time and return to youth. Too much drama. I would lake to go back 10 years and not regain this weight. Thinking fondly of how light I felt - almost like I could fly. But I know what I need to do. JFDI.

Yeah the dentist with tiny hands is a good thing. A few years ago I had a crown in the very back and it took a long time and was not fun. Big handed dentist. The one yesterday is nearer the front. She spent quite a bit of time choosing the color of the crown. I told her to do what she thought. I do not have a toothy grin. Likely more crowns in my future.

Good luck Paula. Have a successful venture.

Studio time this afternoon. I need to make more stuff. Lots of sales this month. Five items in the glaze kiln today. We call Fridays "Fryday" because the kilns run.

DH is on his way to lunch. Mexican so leftovers tonight. We are also going out to dinner with a friend tomorrow night for more Mexican. We actually had two dinner invitations for tomorrow - that never happens to us. Never get tired of Mexican.

Liz glad the water heater is in. Proactive is good. Nothing to worry about during beach days.

My next ****tail explorations will be Limoncello Spritz, which is made with Prosecco, and a Hugo Spritz, which is Prosecco, St. Germain and lemon juice and soda water. I didn't want to open a bottle of Prosecco with just the 2 of us. :)

Peps and his last day in the classroom! Wow! Decades of teaching and then suddenly no more. A lot of people tell me how envious they are that I'm wrapping it up and I remind them I had to get old first and they still have a lot more time ahead of them than I do. But truthfully, I don't mourn my lost "youth" at all. The years ahead may be fewer, but I am so excited to have more choices about how I will spend them. But even that is not a given. We all know things can change in an instance. So I'm going for it!!! Get it while you can!

Liz, I've had those crowns way in the back of my mouth, and I think it feels a little like being waterboarded. Although, according to one endodontist doing a root canal, I have a roomy mouth. Ah, thanks?

I'm enjoying an ice cold diet coke and then I'm going to go shopping for some bedding plants. Diet coke instead of tea because I'm a bit dehydrated after 2 limoncello martinis last night. They were very good and exactly the type of ****tail I enjoy, sweet/tart in a pretty piece of glassware. I will need to be careful with these!

Good luck at the Art Show! And nice that the weight fell back. It does seem that if we don't keep up with the extra eating that we fall back to where we have been maintaining fairly easily.

So glad your dental experience was a good one!!
