Let It Begin ...

... company arrives this morning.  Entertaining begins.  The wife of hubby's bff is a big energy drain (for both of us) and it takes a lot to spend all day with her.  I hope this will feel a little better since it's one of their shorter visits and hubby and I agreed no golf for the men.  If I need to be with her, so does hubby.  He's welcome to do as much golf traveling with his best friend -- but not when it's couples.  Let's see if this visit goes a little easier.

Coaching got canceled last night 20 minutes before the time -- coach was sick.  I understand, but had I canceled, I'd be charged $50 for a last minute cancelation (24 hour rule).  Doesn't seem very fair.  I scheduled another call for Monday.

Yesterday was a really blue day.  I think it's hormones.  I just let myself feel it and that's something I seem to be able to do in Asheville and less able at home (i.e. I'd snack myself happy).  There was no reason for the feeling so that's why I think it's hormonal.  I arrived, unpacked, picked some garden flowers and walked to the teahouse.  All uneventful and the tea was excellent as usual.  The mountain weather is picture perfect again.  Battled the packed grocery stores for food for the weekend.  Man, it was a traffic jam -- it's a reminder this is actually a city.  And I think schools must be out -- downtown was hopping.


On the walk downtown.
Asheville loves to be happy.

BEST smelling roses.

Little tiny flower jars
from turmeric "shots"
at the local juice bar.


I finished the June bookclub book and started a book my aunt gave me.  Read at the teahouse and then came home and sat outside on the rocking chairs for the evening.

Did I mention I finished this ... fun sequel.

Bookclub pick.  It was an enjoyable
little historical suspense book.

From my librarian aunt.


Resting my back this morning ahead of a big mountain walk tomorrow morning.  I'll take a little romp to grab more decaf coffee beans and sit outside for a bit.  Calm before over-socialization.  Wish me luck -- I feel like I need it.  Doing it all with no plans for drinking.  I wonder if I can hold that plan.  

Happy weekend.  Later gators.
