Yesterday's Leftovers

We brought this little boutonniere home with us last night after the wedding in the Newport Harbor. It was much lovlier then. It's been in our refrigerator all day. I love white flowers. If I thought the bride wouldn't have noticed, I would have walked off with her bouquet . . . beautiful white roses with one calla lily accented with a light touch of deep green lacy fern. I love weddings.

True confession -- I stayed in my jammies till 3:00 this afternoon. I've accomplished zero, zip, nothing today. Oh, I sorted several days of mail and shredded the junk. Made a new playlist on the iPod. Had a long phone conversation with girlfriend, Peg (see her on my "about" page). Her family leaves for family camp tomorrow (see camp photos June 21-27 for a lookey). They haven't been for several years so I gave her suggestions for how to pack. Then I had a long conversation with our daughter, Dede.

She and her hubby went to their first ever horse races yesterday at Del Mar. She was enthralled with the whole experience. "Mom, it's a place to go dressed-up and wear a hat!" I told her that Grammie Teele had introduced me to horse racing years ago and that I too loved it! We may do a mom/daughter day at the races later in the season. Tomorrow afternoon Dede and I are going to the Sawdust Art Festival in Laguna Beach, mostly because there is a music group, "The Girls," playing there in the evening that I want to hear. We might talk Dede's hubby, John, into going with us.

Thanks for your comments, but even more so, thanks for your blips that I so enjoy seeing. Well, after a "do-nothing" day in Southern California that felt wonderfully fulfilling, I'll sign-off by wishing you a lovely tomorrow.
