I'm so glad it went well. And nice to be greeted by a happy-to-be-home cat!

Do we find happiness so often that we should turn it off the box when it happens to sit there?

Lists were made to be... misplaced ;)

My lists tend to be repetitive... duplicates... forlorn attempts at being mature and responsible. *sigh* No wonder I like fantasy stories... I live in that world ALL THE TIME! :D But I'm having FUN (most of the time ;)
The temps over the next 5 days to a week promise to be around 100 (plus or minus) heat index, so I've been doing "the stuff" that needs to be done outside. Then mid-week, I'm off on an adventure with local daughter to join up with Balti daughter and their dad for a day (or so) to have a lunch and a chat. The first time we'll be assembled in at least 10 years. I honestly can't remember the last time... though we're all in touch with each other all the time. It's going to be fun (non-sarcastic) and imho extremely important to keep these family connections with the years turning into decades. He and I are in our 70s and they're in their 50s. His health isn't very good and his vision worse, so it may be (non-morbid) the last time he'll truly see the kids (yep... they're still and always "the kids!")
So I'll grab some pink lemonade and the lawnmower before it gets too hot to dance! Thanks for taking such great care of us, Altaira! Have a great week/weekend everyone!!!
We have been there and back again.

Summer in the City - Loving Spoonful
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people lookin' half dead
Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
But at night, it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on, and dance all night
Despite the heat, it'll be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
The days can't be like the nights
In the summer in the city
In the summer in the city
Cool town, evening in the city
Dressed so fine and lookin' so pretty
Cool cat lookin' for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
'Til I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Runnin' upstairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
Summer Nights from Grease -- John Travolta and Olivia Newton John
Summer lovin', had me a blast
Summer lovin', happened so fast
Met a girl crazy for me
Met a boy cute as can be
Summer days drifting away
To, uh oh, those summer nights
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh!
Tell me more, tell me more
Did you get very far?
Tell me more, tell me more
Like does he have a car?
She swam by me, she got a cramp
He ran by me, got my suit damp
Saved her life, she nearly drowned
He showed off splashing around
Summer sun, something's begun
But, uh oh, those summer nights
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh!
Tell me more, tell me more
Was it love at first sight?
Tell me more, tell me more
Did she put up a fight?
Took her bowling in the arcade
We went strolling; drank lemonade
We made out under the dock
We stayed out till ten o'clock
Summer fling don't mean a thing
But, uh oh, those summer nights
Tell me more, tell me more
But you don't gotta brag
Tell me more, tell me more
'Cause he sounds like a drag
He got friendly holding my hand
Well, she got friendly down in the sand
He was sweet, just turned eighteen
Well, she was good, you know what I mean
Summer heat, boy and girl meet
But, uh oh, those summer nights
Tell me more, tell me more
How much dough did he spend?
Tell me more, tell me more
Could she get me a friend?
It turned colder; that's where it ends
So I told her we'd still be friends
Then we made our true love vow
Wonder what she's doin' now
Summer dreams ripped at the seams
But, oh, those summer nights

That's quite a distance between homes - are you going to meet mid-way, or are you two going all the way to Balti?
Whichever, it's a good time to be in a car's air-conditioning, but still make sure you've got lots to drink. And may you have a wonderful reunion!
