Back to Work...and other inane comments

Yesterday was my first day back to work. I'm so grateful they held my job for me and so happy to have an opportunity to be useful again. It's uplifting to discontinue my boneless lump impression. I must say I do look forward to retirement, though. Boneless lumps notwithstanding, I never did run out of projects around the house.

Day-before-yesterday was Independence Day and it was a lovely one for us. We sat out front and watched our neighbors light their fountains and sparklers, then retired to the back yard and sat in the dark enjoying the balmy evening, watching as other, unknown neighbors set off their unsafe and insane fireworks. In other words, the good kind.

And now, for no particular reason, for he needs no reason other than because he's just so stinkin' cute...
