A Long Week's Cup...



Taking a Moment to just BREATHE this morning.

After a seriously over-scheduled week.

Oh, it was wonderful...just non-stop. 

From this roaring over last Sunday






A "Holy Fuck" moment as it passed right over my apartment.

Dropping ping pong ball sized hail as it went...which will definitely get your attention. Seriously messing up my buddy, Tommy's, newly painted and polished show car "Red"  Not to fear...they picked her up the next morning and brought her back good as new yesterday!

The Tucker-Cat was so scared, when it roared by, he surgically implanted himself up under the glider rocking chair for almost an hour after it was over.

Although it sounded nothing like a train...it was definitely LOUD, and I am so  thankful it didn't touch down until it got outside of Greencastle.

Worked in our Garden Patch on Tuesday, which is starting to come along nicely and had a sparkling Moscato brunch with Nicole.






Had my Spring Brunch (Almost Home) and Political Chat with an old friend I meet "seasonally" now...lamenting the fact that this





Has somehow floated to the top of the GOP's cesspool as their Presidential Offering for 2016.  Try to wrap your brain around the fact that this guy beat a field of 15 other Republicans.

Seriously.

Sure...he is a loud-mouth, bigoted, narcissist, Cheeto-colored guy...but damn it- he is THEIR Cheeto-Guy...okay???

Even my "Republican for Years"  friend shook his head and said

"No way in HELL will I ever vote for this guy"

So I feel better about that. And we parted, with hugs and kisses and

"I will see you in the SUMMER!"

Which is just around the corner.

Finally made a bit of time to start poking (virtually) around Bath, England midweek..














Loved the geothermal Roman Baths!

My Youngest Grandson turned 2.

THEN (with his Fraggle Rock Cap) :

And NOW

                                                    "SUP?"

His party is late this afternoon...with cake...but also authentic handmade tacos and margaritas!







And KUDOS to Nicole who has homemade fondant icing down to an ART Form!


Friday, Loretta and Judy and Sharon and I did our Monthly Brunch and Chat together at The Double Decker and are making plans for Terre Haute and mall-ratting soon!

Oh, and Che (Idgy's son) is gearing up for his High School Graduation next weekend! How the HELL did that happen?  Hard for either of us to believe...


Having just finished with their PROM last weekend.

                                                 "Che and Rey at Prom"

Got his announcement this week...and will be mailing his graduation card and gift on Wednesday!


So I am planning a Four Day Retreat really soon!   I've earned it.

After the 15th life seems like it will slow down a bit. 

More anon...
