Sigh

So, the party ended.  Everyone had a great time.  They all left and went to their homes.  Arrived safely and started enjoying the rest of their summer.

We haven't taken time to actually rest yet, even though it has been a week since it all ended.  We've been slowly trying to put things back in place.  Take the extra leaf out of the dining table; fold up the junior table; unclothe the dessert table; freeze leftover pork; milk; cookies.

We draw each other's names every year and this year my present came from Steve, the oldest son.  He gave me, among other nice things, a cd called: Pickin' on Zepplin.  Led Zepplin is his favorite group and since I have been entranced by bluegrass for the past few years (because of Billy Strings) he decided this cd would make a great gift for Mom.  Well, he is correct.

I've been driving around listening to it in my car.  Driving up the peninsula and stopping at the art gallery inside Old Mission Tavern.  and yes, having lunch there as well.  Going for a pedicure after my workout at the gym and ignoring the computer world.

Vegging out in front of the tv for the Republican National Convention and trying to find something in Donald Trump to tell me he's the one to vote for.....no luck in that regard.  What a mess we are having in politics.  I hate to see the Clintons back in the WhiteHouse because I know they are both untrustworthy, but I am going to vote for her.  I have to do whatever I can to keep Donald out and if I am forced to vote for someone I do not want to vote for, then so be it.  Lesser of two evils.
