Well here it is mid July 2012. I have been busy, busy,busy. The "family" went home Monday and my house is almost back to normal. I love having company and the house was overflowing with kids, and laughter and meals outside. Its quiet now and as I pulled out my planner today I penciled in some "Me
Time".
Today, I had my hairdresser work some magic on a summer do. I really like it. I feel recharged and like ,a new woman..
Next week starting with an eye exam Monday, Tuesday shopping and lunch with a friend and Wednesday a trip to Bend with another girl friend. Often people say to me "You are so busy". I sometimes appear more so than other times. Our retired scheduled life " is pretty much impromptu. If Clay feels like jumping in the car to "Go". I am ready. I love that I can do this. We have had some great adventures in day trips and longer journeys. Life is good and we must make every day count. My garden is coming along, the chickens are doing well, and the ducks are happy living on the pond. I think my Sinus /Allergy situation is under control. Another Camping trip is in the planning stage and a trip to Washington to visit my mom too...I guess I do want to do it all... and why not?
So, I will be off next week playing, shopping, maybe taking a photo or two.
Do you have a planner to keep your schedules or do you just take what comes? Sometimes I like to do both... depending on my mood.. Enjoy these nice summer days whatever you do..and take time to do something special just for you....

Love your schedule of impromptu and planned. I also am ready for any adventure at a drop of a hat. A few of my friends say I exhaust them with my schedule. I look at it as you only go around once in life so enjoy! Maybe I squeeze too many activities in but I also look at how much fun I am having. So I say go for it and have fun next week!
Oh yes, we are semi-retired and I love being able to do things we couldn't do if we worked 5 days a week. Enjoy your time!!
You're right. Some time we have to make time for ourselves to keep us uplifted to lift up others. You said a powerful mouthful...we have to make every day count!
Blessings,
