Weekend sun and fun.

I had a fabulous weekend.  I spent most of it outdoors with friends.  My kids were gone this weekend, and I spent yesterday with someone else's kids LOL!  We went for a long walk through state property, on trails, and saw the Shetucket River from a ridge trail high above where the river was.  It was beautiful.  All of the pine trees, and quiet of the woods.  We must have walked over a mile and had two very tuckered out kids on Saturday night :)

Today, I went with my mother sailing with family friends.  Talk about being able to have time to be mindful.  Out on the water, boat rocking, wind blowing, the sounds of birds, of other people enjoying their time on the water.  It was wonderful.  I had good conversation, a great sandwich for lunch, and lots of wonderful sun.  I will sleep well tonight for sure.

My car is still stuck, and I still have big truck.  I'm hoping that tomorrow a locksmith can do something for me.  If not, it'll be off to the dealership.  *sigh*  Oh well, worse things have happened!

Tomorrow mom and I are going to have a last hoorah day.  We're going to go see "The Help" and then go to panera for lunch.  Mom is back to school on Wednesday, Jaime and I start on Monday, and Eloise starts pre-k soon.  I'm so excited that we'll all be back into a schedule.  Summer has been wonderful, but I'm ready for some structure.
