In case you were wondering (and some people have been!) I am still here. It’s interesting how some people worry about me when they see I haven’t blogged for a while. It’s very sweet—thank you for caring. All is well. I’ve been busy but also haven’t really felt like blogging.
Rick is home from his travels and finally staying home for a while.
My sister has come and gone. (Good visit!)
The bathroom remodels were completed with several days to spare before my sister arrived. She gave the guest bathroom her stamp of approval!
The pool is finally coming up to a good temperature after going up and down with all the rain and cool nights we were having. We had so much rain—over 3.5 inches worth—over a period of a few days that we had to let water out of the pool.
The day lilies by the pool are in full bloom now (see header pic above); my fig tree is laden with little green figs.
Now we are looking forward to a lazy, low-key holiday weekend with plenty of grilling, eating and libations and poolside laying about. On the menu plan: BBQ baby back ribs with baked beans and coleslaw, Papaya Margaritas, Goat shoulder tacos, a frangipane fig tart (not my figs ... yet). (But not all those things at once.)
And maybe, just maybe, I am out of my blogging slump. Is anyone still interested in vacation posts or should I move on?
