When work is good
Geese on the chapel. Honking throughout Mass this morning.

Grommet. Plenary. Xanax.
Today sucked. For the most part. But I made some pretty pictures. Except for the one of the quarter I found in my desk when I was rummaging for change so I could buy a soda because the day sucked and I thought that with my grouchiness that I might not be able to find anything to shoot more beautiful than finding the quarter.

Summer Fun
After many hours, I finally have Zozo registered for her summer camps. It’s a little like fitting together a jigsaw puzzle, and I usually feel like having a glass or eight of wine afterwards. Some of it has to do with our schedules, some of it has to do with what she wants to do, and two week-long overnight camps were carefully coordinated with a friend.

Today in Pix
You didn't think I'd let today go by with only a crappy snapshot of my cat, did you?

The Old Woman and The Book
I’ve been reading a lot lately. I’ve been reading so much that I wouldn’t even call it reading. I’d call it inhaling. I’ve been sucking up prose like I’ve been on a literary diet and I haven’t lost any weight so now I’ll just binge to make myself feel better while saying, “It’s okay, I’ll start over tomorrow.” Not that I have ever, ever done that with food. Or alcohol. Nope.

communion
Our girl made her first communion today. So very proud and happy for her. I wept almost the entire Mass. And I looked at all her little friends in their white dresses and veils and marveled that I get to know these girls through Girl Scouts and softball and soccer.

ready
I have cleaned and cleaned and cleaned. Ordered food and cake. Bought gifts. I think we might be ready for First Communion tomorrow.

A day of good
I had fun today. I laughed at lunch with old friends. I laughed at the office with my assistant. I welcomed my hubby back from Germany and we had a wonderful date night. I saw Finding Vivian Maier, which has been on the Want List for months. (It exceeded my expectations.)
