Hope that you are soon here every day.
Thought of you this evening while I was dancing at a drum circle.
Possibly interesting story:
My father and I were part of the first U.S. trade delegation to East Germany after the wall fell. We went to Leipzig to sell clothing. Our group's booth was the main attraction of the show as we amused ourselves with a putting green, baseball mitts, and a basketball hoop. The locals tried our amusements but lacking the eye-hand coordination common among soccer(football) cultures just had good fun and laughs.
On the second night we were there, they put on a lingerie fashion show. Dad and I demurred and went on an impromptu walking tour of Leipzig. Being East Germany, all the damage of WWII had not been fixed. It was still beautiful. It was Old Europe.
One great memory of many I've had with my father.

Had a drinking dream last night. I wanted to, but I couldn't. My Son kept walking in just as I was about too. Think I'll give him a hug for saving me in my dream world. That'll confuse him.....
Today I celebrate one year and six months sober. So last night I went out and bought myself something special with some of the money I've saved....
A concert sized Banjo Ukulele (or a Four String Banjo.)

Just checking in - not quite ready for bed. Got my veggies ready for lunches next week. I'm thinking Bacon and Eggs for coffee break on Friday.
Had a nice weekend visit with my out of town Brother and Sister-in-law, more family secrets revealed by Dad. 5 years after Moms death, and we learn about how rough her start in life was and a sense of the shame she must've felt. No wonder we isolated to another country
