Summer

Today is the first day that S doesn't have school or camp...basically the summer has officially started. I wish I didn't have to go to work today and have a couple of months off in the summer too! I'll have to see when would be some good days to take off of work this month and next :-)

Growing large zucchini and Marvin

Our squash plant has finally started producing squash. There are supposedly 3 different kinds...zucchini, yellow squash, and a white zucchini...we picked a few the other day and one had grown to be quite large...I've posted a picture of the bush and of the squash we picked. They are actually a bit prickly to the touch...never knew that.

Other news...trying to train Marvin to walk nicely on a leash, he's learned to sit and kind of knows what down means. We've also been working on fetching and retrieving...hopefully we can get him to know how to do that outside...we shall see.

Blissful...

1. A hug just because from my special someone
2. A lazy weekend morning with a cup of coffee
3. A clean house
4. The smell of the morning air
5. The feeling you get after a good workout
6. Completion of a project
7. Conversations with close friends
8. Fresh flowers from farmers' market in a vase

What do you consider to be blissful?

Just an ordinary day

Today is just an ordinary weekday...nothing different is planned. Yesterday we went to the Giants' game...it was not super great just because it was kind of a blow-out...the gents lost 8-1...hopefully they can pull it together tonight. My bro graduated last Friday...unreal. It makes me feel old and then to top it off, the other day, S was talking about how he was squatting during camp and when he got up...his legs were shaky - the oldness is creeping in! :-) life goes on i suppose...

So behind...

It's been a while since I've posted...Our new puppy has kept me quite busy! He is very active and is in the teething phase...Unfortunately that means he bites and it really hurts! Besides that I've started to teach him how to sit...hopefully he catches on :-)
