I lost my hotspot for a second and didn't think to copy this. Kitty, I actually did like poetry as a small child. I didn't enjoy studying it at my high school. I think the school's English curriculum was ambitious, I was young - summer bd + skipped a grade (but so had most of my classmates by the school's design), and I was also immature, imho. I was also more of a math and science kid in high school and English was my least favorite subject. . .until my Sr. year (age 16) when something clicked in my brain, although I was always a big reader.
kitkat, I do that too, get sidetracked by the small tasks. Sometimes I never get back to the large task I need to do. If I can write those small tasks on my list, it goes better for me.
trissie, you're lucky to have a classmate who is a theater director! Sounds like a fun evening. You've got to do that once in a while.
You're here so you must have a magic touch with the internet, Doggedly.
Lauralind, I hope you can get a sample easily from Casper and that he is on the mend. You're amazing being able to fix your crochet project.
L Ann, WTG on your morning walk.
We got to the bnb around 9 pm last night (10 pm our body time) after stopping by a fav restaurant for dinner, very nostalgic! It's a very nice bnb - open and spacious, nicely decorated, and with lots of large windows. Dh and I are currently sitting in a nook that has two walls of floor to ceiling windows. We could see the lights of the city through the windows last night. Even better -- there are 3 coffee shops within a 10 minute walk, and we're half a mile from a very large WF and a mile from the walking path along the lake (Colorado River). Downside: the welcome book with wifi info that the rental company promised us is not here so we don't have access to the home's wifi.
I messaged the company last night but have not heard back yet. Fortunately dh always has his own wifi and I have a hotspot on my phone. It is 75F and forecast to get up to 84F. It's going to be a gray day but rain is not really expected today. I think I'll need to shave my legs
so I can put on capris or shorts. I went to WF first thing this morning so we could have coffee and dh could have his morning yogurt. We're not big breakfast eaters.
