So much things to say right now
Jun. 24th, 2021 12:09 pmIt's been a minute since I posted and I don't have time to catch up. Let this be a sitrep.
We took Honey to camp yesterday. She's very happy to be there. Out of the house, back on track. It was a lovely drive out into the woods and hills. It's quiet without her here. When Violet goes to camp, it will be even more empty. It will take us time to decompress and adjust.
It's a busy day with several meetings. I slept late and missed my long walk and yoga. I will go up to the Farmer's Market for the first time this afternoon. Next week I have a five day weekend. I should plan to spend it well. Kayak, anyone? Looking forward to our trip to Vermont. How I love the open road.
I made a playlist for the kids of music that was important to me throughout my life. It was a really challenging exercise but very worthwhile. I tried to strip away what I think is cool now and give a real representation. Some themes emerged, such as that my country upbringing influences everything. I like strong vocals, interesting lyrics and acoustic guitars. So many of the songs are about travel and leaving. Another goal was to share the artists that I really care about. Not just what my boyfriends liked, but what stuck and resonated with me. I'm still tinkering. How do you pick ONE Bob Dylan song? Maybe by having P,P & M sing it? Indigo Girls? Jimi? The list is also very slow and very white. The most recent song is from 2018, Brandi Carlile, and I might cut it. For some reason, I see this as a legacy.
