Coastal.

The historian and I are celebrating our tenth anniversary, taking a little trip to the coast. Looking forward to it so much! I really can never get quite enough of the ocean and how the air feels when you're there.

Here's what I've done to get ready for this trip, yesterday and today:
  • had breakfast with my makeup artist daughter and grandson yesterday
  • visited singing son's wife and tiny son today
  • chatted with college daughter
  • exchanged excellent e-mails with running son in Malaysia
  • chatted with Scotland daughter
  • sent packets of poems to six journals and my manuscript to five competitions
  • picked up a Dublin detective novel from the library's robot
  • cleaned up the kitchen
  • ate up some leftovers for dinner
  • watched the Jazz finish off the T-wolves
  • watched Damages
  • listened to the Red Hot Chili Peppers
  • engaged in a little organizing and rabble-rousing
  • developed a wardrobe concept
And now, I am off to turn that wardrobe concept into a little thing we call "packing." I love the historian! The people, I will talk to you when I get back.
