I'm living the dream - almost, the only thing that would bring it closer would be having a fishing pond or lake off the back door patio. (Lana Babes IS living that dream!) I guess if I really wanted to, though, I could be totally living my dream - but, and there is always a but- my dream is not the same as Carolyn's. I think after 50 years of blissful marriage I would know what her ultimate dream would be - I don't!
So I think that would be a great topic for conversation on our upcoming adventure. If only I can remember to bring the topic up. I've got a very short term memory when it comes to that type of discussion.
Today I play in a senior-inter-club match at Heritage Eagle Bend. Played there last year too. I'm looking forward to the match today. I've put together two decent rounds of golf in two consecutive days- so, I'm very happy. I played golf with a gentlemen (Mike) yesterday - probably older than I am- wow did he have a fantastic short game and an excellent long game for that matter. One of the things he did was have a steady routine prior to each shot. He never ever lost his cool - he was reflective of each shot and then went on to the next - he carries a 12 handicap whereas mine is 19 (or close to it).
I've completed the - for the most part, because nothing is ever really finished or completed - the Koi pond retaining wall. I'm now starting on finishing the patio project - sealing and such. It is a busy and very joyful summer!
May all your days be joyful days! They are what you make of them!
Stuff, sometimes current, sometimes memories, sometimes a bit of philosophy, sometimes senseless ramblings. I try to be in the moment so that how I'm writing - in the moment!

Day After The Birthday Celebration
Thanks to all for the kind birthday wishes!
So, yesterday was my birthday - golf with friends, calls and text messages from the kids, some notes from Lockheed Martin fellow workers, a great bottle of scotch which I have not yet opened (From a dear friend), frozen margaritas, a house full of relatives and some grandkids, nephews and nieces, followed by an open house today! And, notice the larger text - we all know why that is!
I won't say much about anything, but..... our threesome scored 1 first place, 1 third place, and a closest to the pin!!!!!! Wow, that is a first.
Carolyn is headed for her Tuesday workout with WTF! She is such a go-getter.
As for me - nothing witty to say! At least not today. I just need to get in the habit of writing again. Love and hugs to all.... smile at someone you don't know today. Say hi.... give some one a break! Give someone a reason to smile back at you! Toodles and Roses!
