So, according to the new plan, DH and I got up at 5 AM and went to the gym. I walked on the treadmill at 3.7 mph for 30 min. Then we showered and came home, I put on my makeup, and went to work. I have been nearly falling asleep all day! Evidently, one bottle of water was not enough - I've been dehydrated. And I missed my morning tea, too. I am SUCH a pantywaist! I want to eat before I work out. DH thinks I should work out first, then eat. Which is better?

I ask, because you have come up with such brilliant solutions to the pink-dyed black and white tablecloth. Overdye it with red? Yes! Buy pink and black china to go with the cloth? Excellent, sideways solution! And of course, it means that I MUST make a new black and white cloth. The dye-grabber sheet might have worked if I hadn't run the thing through the dryer first. But rather than being a cause for sorrow, I now see the pinking of the cloth as a grand new opportunity!

Saturday is the solstice; the longest day of the year. It would be lovely if our cloudcover would break long enough to see where the sun rises and sets, but I don't see why it should happen this year since it hasn't in the past fifteen. Today is in the lower 70s, cloudy, and humid. It feels rather tropical to me. I want to loll under a palm tree with a rum punch and drowsy husband. I'm very good at lolling! He is more of the "We might be missing something!" type. Yep. We might be missing a nice lazy loll in the shade. Siddown, Darling.
