For Today...

Outside my window... hoots and hollers of teenagers across the neighborhood

I am thinking... how much I love that sound

From the learning rooms... I have been taking Italian lessons in preparation for a trip to Italy

I am thankful for... my husband...he is a good man

From the kitchen... I think I will make brownies tomorrow
fresh
I am wearing... pajamas

I am reading...  the John Lennon biography.  It has been a slow go...

I am hoping... that I have a bumper crop of tomatoes.  I planted multiple heirloom varieties this year; pink, black, red, and yellow.  Hoping the deer don't beat me to them. 

I am creating... a throw pillow for my office chair, an herb garden in pots outside my kitchen door

I am praying... for my family, that we are healthy and active

Around the house...  there are  fresh cut flowers from my garden

One of my favorite things...  conversation with my son

A few plans for the rest of the week... work in garden, study italian, go to driving range

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you

My Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Stella, loves to smile!

Where In The World Has Marge Been!

I want to apologize for not being here if you were looking.  I have been longing to write a post but have been too overwhelmed with Life Events.  May is a crazy month.  The college students have returned, the laundry is overflowing, the driveway is full of cars, the lights are on way past the bewitching hour, the garden needs tending, the pool needs service, the vacation needs planning, the New York project is in full swing, the gym is calling my name, the diet needs more attention,  dreams of Italy,  Italian lessons,  golf lessons, benefits and birthday parties, home decorating decisions are waiting, and time with my family is at a premium.   I have missed writing on my blog.  So as the Terminator once said, " I'm back".   Check with me later today and tomorrow for lots of new content.
