Dusting Off and Feeling Groovy


I am dusting off my blogs over the next couple of days, seems I have missed the therapeutic nature of blogging.  Perhaps it is more a dialogue of self than communication with others.  If that is the case then I am most definitely guilty.  The picture taken at Santa Monica Beach this weekend.  I took my daughter and her friend to the Korean Music Festival at the Hollywood Bowl. We had a great weekend-being tourists and simply enjoying each other without fighting.  Of course less than 72 hours home and Rach and I are back to old habits.  She graduates in 30 days, if you are counting, and I am so excited.  I love summer; Rachie and I always summer well together, as the only thing we generally fight about anymore is school.  I believe she is ready for college ( I can't believe I said that).  We are going to college orientation in June and after that-it's finally time to relax.  I did my best in NaPoWri and managed 12 days of poeming, perhaps I have enough poems for the chapbook I am working on.  I wanted 15 love poems, perhaps I have them.  Today Michael and I celebrate 26 years of marriage.  I am glad that we are still together, still love each other, and still having fun. I took this picture because of the smiley--I simply had to fuel that Polly Anna part of my personality.  I can't help it, it is who I am; half cynic and half eternal optimistic.  It drives me crazy.  I am mostly groovy on all fronts. Hope the same for you.
