TGIF
We've had the most glorious weather all week. Balmy, sunshine and gentle breezes. It's grand, but it's not right.
I have had a week of enjoying friends, getting out and about, eating at a new (for us) restaurant in Sacramento called "Mother." It vegetarian and vegan, and the three of us were thrilled with our food.
The hubs and I are in motion to move within the next year into a retirement community. So many reasons why, and yet I'm sad to leave this house that we have loved so much. Yesterday I got out the hammock and my darling took a little snooze in it. That hammock, under those trees, has been my 'happy place' for more than 3 years now. It is perfect for reading, writing, and sleeping. I've had the most delicious naps under those trees. My grandson calls the hammock "the tree bed." We won't have a place to hang it when we move. I may decide to leave it with whatever new owners move into our house. With a note, "Use liberally."
Aloha, friends.

ReplyDeleteAlso sounds like an excellent week, complete with friends and finding a new restaurant that fits!
That sounds like a big move, big change. Is it possible your daughter would like the hammock that has brought you so much happiness? On the other hand, when we moved to our house a couple decades ago, the former owners passed down something meaningful -- a local history book that had been passed from owner to owner, with notes inside from one owner to the ones just ahead of us. It is nice to have a little something from those who also lived in the same place.
Sending lots of love. xoxo
