It's been a bit since I checked in with peeps (blogged just on me). I promise to deliver something more interesting in the next couple of days; just a bit overwhelmed lately.
In general, all is well. I'm a bit loneseome for some of my friends but count my blessings for the ones I see daily.
I'm completely dreading my fall dance performance, and I'm tired of the practices (I know right? This is me; I love to dance, but I'm sick of them.) My shoulder and right leg are both still killing me, but oh well...a girl's gotta get her cardio in.
Started reading the effing MO drivers' manual last night; it's riveting. I can't believe that for a second I thought I'd rather be reading one of my new books that I haven't gotten to yet (Economics in One Lesson and In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto). It's whatever though as it's been agreed that I will in fact be getting a MINI Coop.
Looking forward to next weekend's float trip and playtime with the Tri Damn boys and crew; they deliver fun every time.
I have the sweetest pup in the world now. He is also the most adorable, and I don't mind walking him as I truly love to be outside sometimes, inhaling the fresh air, looking at trees and earth, feeling a little wind in my face.
With the wind in my face
I remember who I am
for a moment
and all thoughts for self
for tomorrow
for yesterday
for
today
are blown and scattered
dispersed like leaves
in a thousand
directions
all at once
disappearing behind who
I believe myself to be
while keeping my eyes
closed against what may
never come-if
I remember

We welcome Karen updates. Always so sarcastic and always so beautiful as well. Love the poem. Excited for you on the driving and puppy news. You'll be great in your dance thing. Miss seeing you in person. Have a good weekend.
Okay, now I know what you mean when you say "interesting", but you imply that you are not interesting when you say that. You, my peach, are quite interesting (only positive connotations attached). I don't think you could write anything that I wouldn't read. BTW, love the imagery in this post. Let's grab coffee or lunch soon.
