So Miz K is gone. It's hard to get used to having the house to myself. (Easier to get used to having the fridge and the medicine cabinet!) I still keep expecting her to come in the back door. She's on a great new adventure ... she inspires me to get my own ass in gear on the adventure front, and I'm so looking forward to seeing Tucson for myself in November.

The Divine Miz Em and I had our long-anticipated girlz weekend. Had to downgrade the terminology from "vacation" when I realized I couldn't afford to take her any farther than O-Town. 'Twas good, though; met her criteria of "vacation" -- a hotel with a pool.
After several trips in and out of said crowded hotel pool, I happened to catch a glimpse of my backside. My swimsuit bottoms are so old, they're worn to see through ... right down the crack. What to do but laugh?
Em was so enthusiastic about Henry Doorly Zoo ... "This is the best day ever!" she kept saying. She got a pretty good photo of one of the big cats:
