Our bills are all paid, and I managed to shift a bit into Savings this month. The weekly laundry is done. DMc and I did a lot of house cleaning this morning. I consolidated two desks\u2019 worth of tech into one so I can convert my office into a single-person extra guest sleeping space. Wayfair is on High Alert about my Favorites. That\u2019s fine, I\u2019m Game, Wayfair. Love your crazy ass. Emerald-green velvet chair-sleeper? Yes, please, I think so, hit me in early November when I\u2019m In the Mood to Buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m still in my somewhat-sweaty-pajamas, drinking inexpensive Chardonnay over ice and baking White Chocolate Cranberry Pecan cookies to put up in the freezer because I\u2019ll need them soon. One of my Pandora stations is going in my headphones (Hello, Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, Steve Winwood, Seals &amp; Crofts!). I\u2019m all set to fly up to Yankee Land for my sister\u2019s wedding in October, including the Perfect TMc Outfit and TSA Pre-check ready to go. Before that, a lovely long weekend in Broken Bow, OK for DMc\u2019s Birthday. Wedding Trip followed by a nice visit to The Hometown, including Quality Time with Mom and TRS. The world is falling apart around us, make no mistake \u2026&nbsp;&nbsp;but my life is Damn Good. Blessed! I\u2019m not stupid enough to feel guilty about it &#8211; the Universe knows, I\u2019ve had my down-cycles too, so I embrace the up-cycles with sincere enthusiasm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can we talk about My Girls?! I\u2019ve got one niece about to have a baby tomorrow, and another just happened to meet a well-known movie actor during her weekend job, because she walks in universal awesomeness. These intelligent, lovely, overall fantastic young ladies are not from my loins, but they are absolutely from my Heart. So VERY proud of them both, for so many reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Very cool Sunday, yes?! YES!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s Sunday afternoon.
