Half the year is now over. Have you had any memorable highlights in the past six months?

Memorable seems like a loaded word. I caught covid while out of the country and returned early to fight through recovery. I eventually healed from November’s foot surgery. We logged many hours in the car on road trips, all of which went relatively smoothly, and our daughter finished her first year in college.

What are you looking forward to in the coming six months?

September is all about music — we have tickets to see James Taylor at the beginning of the month and are going to a music festival toward the end. Plus the hubby and I have a trip planned for just the two of us later in the fall.

How do you keep cool on a hot day?

Climate control is my first line of defense. If I have to be outside — and again, that would be a worst case scenario kind of situation — shade is critical. Being someplace with breeze is a bonus. Inside or out, keeping a giant cup of ice water by my side is a big part of my strategy to stay cool.

Have you ever danced in the rain?

I have but more in the hey look it’s raining way and not so much an I’M SINGINGGG IN THE RAIN, I’M SINGINGGG IN THE RAIN!!! sort of way. A light sprinkling is cool but soaked to the bone isn’t fun for me.

Gratitude:

People who understand me, people with a weird sense of humor, people who do the next right thing even when it’s hard, and people who are out here living in their truth every day.
