Went for a wonderful drive today. Didn’t get lost once. Took many, many pictures.
I don’t know what to say except that everything here is just peachy. The kids have three half-days next week and then they are out for the summer. This is a mixed blessing. It means sleeping in once in awhile, going to the beach, parks and taking nature walks and bike rides. But it also means carting three monsters every where, grocery shopping and errands, things that they hate. That or going to the store myself late at night after they are in bed. Which is okay once in awhile, but it gets old fast. I mean shopping at Meijers at midnight and watching people shuffling the isles in their pajamas once a year is my limit.
Do I sounds like I’m whining? I feel like I’m whining… I feel like that a lot lately… I hate it when I whine.
We are going to Detroit next weekend! I can’t wait. I love where I live. Actually I would be happy any where I had to live… I believe very strongly that your home is where you are in the moment. As long as I can get out and explore where I am, I’m a happy girl… oh and I have to be able to talk to my Mamala at least once a week.
Once again I am RAMBLING… at least I veered away from whining… where was I?
Oh I love where I live. I love nature, but once in awhile I want a city. I can’t wait to take some pictures in the city.
I make Traverse sound small… but actually it is quite large, 150 thousand people at least and in the summer that number triples. That’s part of why its a gem it feels like a small place but it isn’t.
SO I am looking forward to Detroit. So that I can take pictures like this…
of my favorite sushi place.
Ahhh… good food.
My little sis, my nephew

Artomat (hopefully)
It’s going to be a grand time.

I love Philly too,and ould live there also,or anywhere but I love here.I am jealous of the Art-o-mat!! There is on 2 hrs from here,one of these days!! I love to shop at night with people in their pj’s.My mom would bake a cake when we were out for the summer! She lived for the weekends when it was the school year…I never knew why,we five kids were the most obnoxious lot you ever saw…..if you can believe that!

Thanks for visiting.
Have a great trip!
see, now I love going to the store in the middle of the night… there are less “people” there… I’m not good w/ “people” LOL…
ryc: hee hee, thanks!!!
ttfn…
Yeah, it’s actually quite refreshing. The whole retina thing is why I said it…It’s like saying, “man, I need to be shot” or something.
I would love living in a more earthy place. I hate living in a humongous city. The city part is great, but you just need the right balance…
I know how you feel about country and city. Too much of either gets boring. I’d rather live in the country and just visit the city I think. I’d love to see an art-o-mat. I’d love to have a ciggy machine to stock with art
Yay for the trip to Detroit! Can’t wait for the pics!
Ramble all you want–that’s what blogs are for–and yes I also feel that home is where your heart is–no matter what state, city, or town…
sounds like you had fun though…
Put your head on my wings and whine if you feel like it. My feathers are tearproof by now. I will be sitting on your chopsticks and watch the calories intake… ยง;>
did you have any cheese with your whine? lol Actually, it didn’t come across as whining. and I enjoy your rambling. Have a great day!
No human on earth will ever get me in a Sushi House. My wife could tempt anyway she could think of and the answer would be absolutely not, probably.

LOL! I no you will have a good time! My grand daughter has been out of school for a week and I’m ready for her to go back!
Have fun in Detroit! Raw fish yuck!!
Traverse City in MI? I have family all over the place in MI… hoping to get up there for a visit soon…
sorry now I am rambling… just popped in to say hello!

Have you noticed that after a long, restful weekend, you somehow find yourself even more tired on Monday morning; regardless of the amount of sleep you’ve had? Yeah I can’t figure that one out either. It must be a sign that I need a vacation of something. -Bek
