The lake was busy as usual for the 4th and John and I were happy to stay in for the most part. I did go to yoga and stopped to pick up ribs on the way home and dropped some off for David and Alison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The highlight of the week was seeing Mary last Sunday \u2014 we were thrilled that she brought Paul Shell with her, an old Hendrix classmate who we hadn\u2019t seen in a long time. Mary brought BBQ and Paul brought homemade salsa – yum! We had a great time catching up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another old Hendrix friend, Kathy, came over for a glass of iced tea on Wednesday while John and Rusty drove up to Fayetteville to see Ginger. I was sad I didn\u2019t get to see Ginger this trip, but was happy John and Russ had a chance to visit on the drive up there and back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Charlie is doing fine but is still in the cone. We tried taking it off after a week but he immediately licked until it bled, so the cone went right back on. He really suffers from separation anxiety \u2014 poor fellow \u2014 so I am trying to figure out how to deal with that. Wish me luck! He really is a Velcro dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John and I finished \u201cLine of Duty,\u201d and really hated to see it end after six seasons (we hear there\u2019s a #7 in the works!). We binged on \u201cThe Bear,\u201d and I watched season two of the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders documentary (my guilty pleasure!). I finished reading the light \u201cGod of the Woods\u201d by Liz Moore and am half heartedly reading \u201cRoar\u201d by Selene Yeager – I haven\u2019t seemed to have the concentration I need to get into it. Yesterday and today I have been immersed in Wimbledon – hooray!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I took John to the airport yesterday – he\u2019s headed to DC to start his training, beginning with Crash-Bang, then DCM class. So exciting!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
