Saturday

Rhodys in the backyard. I love this one.

"Saturday is a special day it's the day we get ready for Sunday." And as such I think we should be granted an extra few hours added to the day.

It's 10:30 a.m. so far with we have been to the automotive store, the lumber store, the gas station and McDonalds. Now I'm heading outside to vacuum and clean the inside of my car, then mow the back lawn.

Later I will spend three hours hanging out with the youth at the church for their second to last dance practice before the big day next Saturday.

If I can find the guy on the street corner selling cases of strawberries from California I hope to be making strawberry rhubarb jam this evening.

Laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping, well those will happen as time permits.

A shout out to my daughter who is spending her Saturday with her husband's family as they celebrate the life of her husband's grandmother, Tink Hanson.

And also a shout out to my dear friend since 3rd grade Gail, as she hopes to come home from a few days in the hospital after fighting a nasty infection after having surgery on her foot. 

Go out and enjoy the day!

Not Your Regular Hula Hoop

I have become enamored by this video. I work with her mother and she had told me her daughter does this dancing, but I hadn't seen it before. She emailed me this video today and I think it's beautiful.

Friday Night Smackdown

Friday nights at our house consist of Wally watching wrestling and me sitting at the computer. I had intended to write on my blog tonight but got carried off to the world of Facebook and Pinterest. And just now I looked at the clock and it's just about 10 pm. At 10 pm the wrestling is over and I normally clean up the kitchen then go to bed.

But I decided to write a quick blog anyway. Besides tomorrow is Saturday and I can clean the kitchen up in the morning.

I thought of something to add to my life list today. I left the office at lunch time to run an errand in Bellevue. That involves driving across Lake Washington on I-90. I watched people on their bicycles going across the bridge. How fun would that be? I have no idea how many miles it is or even where you start. But that sure would be a fun thing to do.

Also in celebration of the Seattle Center's 50th anniversay, they have put in some new rides and a zip line. Yep a zip line. Something I have yet to do. That is also on my list.
