listen to the rhythm of the falling rain

I have been having a very laid back vacation. I go back to work on Tuesday, had my first work stress dream last night in a while.


What I Did On My Summer Vacation, by beachlass

1. Went to the roller derby. Women in fishnets, body checks, racing around the track, cheering on the jammers. What's not to love.
2. Bought a new lawn mower to replace the broken one, got caught up on the yard work.
3. Went to see Stratford's production of Twelfh Night for the second time. I love this one so much, guys. The music is enchanting, the staging hilarious, ans Ben Carlson as Feste has won my heart completely.  There are so many layers of love and desire and fidelity and longing.
4. Eaten tomatoes from my garden. There are few pleasures as uncomplicated as sweet, sunwarmed tomatoes.
5. Slept past 10am. 
6. Finished knitting a lace shawl.
7. Read without feeling lime there was something else I should be doing.
8. Caught up on the laundry. 
9. Cleaned the fridge. (Yuck)
10. Had soul reviving visits w family and friends.
