Hazy Shades of Winter

Hey y'all

We've made it to hump day of the first full work week of the new year. I feel like I should cheer.

Rah.

At some point I will share more of the Memphis trip. For now I'll just say that a visit would be well worth your while--seeing Sun Studios and standing where the magic of rock and roll began was really really cool. So I'll have more later---pics and everything.

Coming back we got an extra treat in being able to meet up with Ginger of Gingersnaps for lunch in Nashville---another fabulous place to visit. Janelle was supposed to join us for lunch but couldn't make it. Ginger is awesome---we had an instant affinity. We had a great time talking and could have ---and did consider---spending the rest of the day there. However we had already made some karaoke plans Saturday night so we came home. We plan to go back for a weekend soon as it is just a three hour drive.

It's been gray and cold and rainy here and both Brad and I are feeling a little puny. Lord knows we were exposed to enough germies at Graceland alone. It's a FABULOUS place to visit but very much like a theme park in the number of folks and their attendant microbes.

We took down the outside decorations at Bliss Manor on Sunday--they are drying out in the garage. We agreed that the rest could wait til this weekend. We spent the rest of the day being slugs--snuggling with the Babies (the Ex was really cool to switch weeks and let us have them) and enjoying a fire for the entire afternoon and deep into the evening.


I feel a rant coming on for tomorrow's Thursday Edition--I think I just really need a good vent about a few things. Maybe you do too;-)

Smooches and gropes babies.
