Life is Bizzzz-eeee

In my Soroptimist Club we have slogans. One of our older ladies -- long retired -- says "Life is Bizzz-eee!" and mine has echoed hers lately. My 12-step (addicted to food) program requires 3 meetings a week, then I have workouts and family needs, and my social life has simply been busier than usual. I hadn't realized that I had failed to blog for almost two months. In that time we have had my Mother's 90th birthday (pictures included), a trip to Santa Barbara for a 50th anniversary party, and several other adventures. We also have a new pet, and I will say more about that in another post.

All five of Mom's grandchildren were at the party, held at Nancy and Ryan's house. One husband and one boyfriend weren't able to make it and were missed. There was one great grandchild. The day was lovely (we have had a very nice summer) and people stayed mostly outside.

As I write this I am reminded why I need to blog. I get out of the habit of writing so very quickly. I try to journal in a book but it isn't the same for me. As a Journalism major, I learned to think at the typewriter (computer these days). I need that keyboard to do this. Taking the time to sit at the keyboard and write must be part of my discipline.
