07-08-25 100 Days!
My countdown app told me it’s 100 days to Rome so I knew it was time to share the upcoming adventure on Facebook.
It has actually gotten me more excited about the whole idea. I was also thrilled when Wendy reached out considering to join for a part of the cruise with her sister-in-law. I connected her with my travel specialist to see what the options are. That would be so fun to have her along for even a week.
I worked hard today and then I stopped to see Elva just as she was closing up her shop and we sat and had a couple of glasses of wine and a great visit. It’s so funny that we had a moment back when we first met and she was volunteering for summer sounds because of a miscommunication. We dealt with it as adults and have been good friends ever since. I love saying goodbye, I love you, to my friends. her husband, Paul is also one of the most awesome men that I know he looks you in the eyes, smiles and listens and ask questions and cares about who you are. There is no pretense. It is good to have friends like the two of them.
I got home and continued watching down to earth with Zac Efron the down under season. I’m really enjoying learning more and more about Australia and aboriginals and Eco culture down there. it’s also not hard to listen to Zac and watch him scuba diving on the great barrier reef.
I was thrilled to get home and see that my Hollyhocks are in Bloom. I used my tomato frames this year as they were growing up so that they are actually standing up tall, for now. they’re so beautiful.
I did notice today that I have not been paying attention to my raspberries and they are bearing a great deal of fruit. I pick just the ones that were very ripe and they were a delicious treat. They harvest should be bountiful this year given how many are still ripening. I planted them two years ago I think? In any case the timer with a drip watering system to them seems to be making a huge difference.
While I was watching the show tonight, I decided to build C-3PO. It is getting late so I had to stop, but there are only two bags of parts left and I think he’s marvelous. 
I also noted that I have a significant number about to roll over to do with this blog. Not bad for a 62-year-old with a daily ramble and a weird little life. 
Haha, just looked over and realized I had his head spun backwards
