postscript

I was able to get a little more beach time in with some friends yesterday.
The water was super great, the swimming buoyant and joyous. I can say goodbye for now.



Meanwhile, Fall goes forth. There is a guy I know as an aquaintance who used to live in Northampton. Since that time (2003 +/-) he got married and moved to G'field. I often see him riding his bike to and from work and around town, sometimes with a tie on which is super cute. I just saw him go up Wells on his bike with his wife on another bike looking fit and futur-istic (if the future is full of green-minded bike riders that is). Just before they went by an older guy rode by the Bricker on his old bike, going considerably slower and on the sidewalk. Funny.

I never get enough

GOOOD




BETTER




Like a drug, I can't get enough.

Me and the Hood

I'm on vacation right now and I'm hanging with my family. DbR uploaded this pic which was taken when we were almost on vacation. I really like it.



Pickles is wearing a hood I made for myself last Halloween which didn't fit. It was a throwaway. Recently I cleaned behind the couch and I found it. It is pretty cute.

i like this and i like that

Today I did some relaxing in a hammock and although it was hella pleasant, I kept thinking of things that made me a bit sad and regretful. Overall, though, it was a lovely weekend and I don't mind the next week. I really want to get a lot of work done at work this week before I take my birthday week off. I am happy to anticipate the vacation and would like every minute before it commences to drag slowly so I can enjoy the birthday lead up. Soon it will be over and I won't be able to look forward to the birthday vacation for a while. at least until February, when i will be able to happily anticipate DbR's 40th birthday vacation week. whoo hoo.

I saw this and stole it from Cooper's fb page. I really like it, it makes me happy to see my son doing the music recording. He is living the life I am pleased to have him live. He seems to be pleased as well and I think that is all very good.



so, to sum up, life isn't so terrible as we begin to enjoy this, my favorite month.
