What Are You Doing Today?

SO had two good days! A buckle! I sure hope so. He packed the whole strutting regalia for tonight’s awards. If he does not place I have a cardboard bucket covered with foil and “my #1” for the trophy case. Got to be a bit goofy from time to time.

Made an old fashioned cheese ball. SO will eat it like real food. I freeze in cup size canning jars with screw tops. Perfect with pretzel balls.

Took my dog for a beautiful walk by the lake. Chatted with a neighbor about silly things.
Had a laugh, which is always good. Watched 3 young boys catch some pretty good sized Bluegill
They were so excited, made me smile. It's been a good day so far!

We went to an art festival today. Not a "fine arts" festival, to be sure, but there were some lovely things along with some stuff I'd say leans towards "crafts".

There were also the usual roofing, bathroom refitting, insurance and other commercial concerns that I don't think have a place at an "arts" festival but I guess when you have to struggle to pay the expenses, you'll take entry fees from anyone.

We were there when it opened at 9 and it was already HOT.

Lots of dogs, which I consider a form of animal abuse as i saw some who were visibly uncomfortable. More dogs in strollers than babies in strollers. One lady had a chihuahua in her arms that she was struggling to contain. It was literally screaming at the other dogs. She said she was trying to socialize the dog. Lady, a hot crowded art festival ain't the right place to start that.....

Anyway, I saw lots of stuff I wanted and nothing I needed.
