My apologies...

Shay pointed out to me last night that me calling people "love muffin" could be compared with her calling someone "Candy", and thus making them wonder why she thinks they are a stripper.  If in yesterday's post I inadvertently revealed your stage name, I apologize.

Well, now that we have that cleared up, we can move on!

Yesterday I got to take the day off.  It was lovely.  I managed to work out and get a little bit of studying done in the morning before heading over to Viv's house to do some gardening in the afternoon.

I wore my favorite hippie dress.

I practiced nature photography.

And I rubbed some furry yellow-lab bellies.

We managed to do a little bit of gardening even.  Can you imagine?  Oh, and we made Mint Juleps.  To all of you Southern Belles out there:  I'm never drinking with any of you.  You will beat me every time.  I know this now.  Yikes.

I love this time of year, because in Colorado, it's the time when all of life seems to burst forth from the ground before your very eyes.  One day you're looking at a tiny sprout, and the next day, it's a plant that's got blooms on it.  Spectacular.

Who needs macroeconomics when you have the opportunity to experience life being created?  Oh wait... I guess I do.  Well, back to work for me.  Until next time, my friends.
