on the ottoman

taking a long weekend. to LA. to happiness. abundant.

taking along two books. the joys of a cooperative library reserve list. and a bit of good luck.

'there aren't enough days in the weekend.'

happy 4th

it's a happy day.

it's a happy fourth.

from beginning. with the hubs. and Bob. and Phil. and Paul. and the beauty of France (um ... Holland).

to ending. with friends. and fireworks.

'but I can hardly sit still. I keep fidgeting, crossing one leg and then the other. I feel like I could throw off sparks.”
