Exploring the bric-a-brac of my mind...

What today's Treasure-Vault find?

#65 - is that all there is?

I'm in the midst of spelunking on the interwebs for music for my darling mom-in-law (really, the only mom I have right now).  It's her big NINE-OH coming up in a few short weeks, and I hope to put together an iMovie presentation for her birthday.  Not the same thing as I did for my dearling (yes, he is a dearling) hubby's big SIX-OH, but not too far off from that.

Today was planting day at the plottery, and it was grand.  But messy.  I came away with wet dirt on my casual jacket (which I'd worn on purpose).  I'll have to be more careful, but honestly, it's damned hard to do that when we have the corner of an L shaped plot, and we can hardly reach into the center of it (who designed these things?  it's nuts!).

I was thrilled to hear from my amazing muse and friend Daphne, who writes romance novels but is currently on the "vacation that's not a vacation when you have ankle surgery." She's reading about the Vault!  Ah, an audience.  Maybe this means you like me, you really like me...

We sojourn down to LaLa land this weekend to assist the young one with the final packing before the move.  It will be bittersweet, with a wonderful dinner in store, and the final visit to the S&W Country Diner (highly recommended if you're in downtown Culver anytime in the near or far future).  They've been so good to him and he's been an amazing regular patron for 4 years now (wow - has it been that long?  I think it has).  It will be strange not to have him so close, or being able to pop down for a quick weekend.  This will be the last one...at least for a while.  And we can still take a trip to see his big bro a bit farther down the coast.

Ok, off to pay the bills and get a shoulder massage.  I unloaded several pots and barrels of dirt this weekend and it's really unbelievable how much your muscles ache when you never use them!

Motivation to break old habits and start new ones is there - I just have to kick-start it.
