Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

Indeed it is. Just got finished with a run...it was the perfect morning to get out there and hit the pavement. Started out cold and ended up sunny and cool. 4 miles flew by in no time.

Right now I'm in the house listening to some worker dudes sing (badly) to their loud radio. At least I like country music. The dudes are currently turning our house upside down...installing hard wood floors everywhere we have carpet. I've been wanting to put them in anyway, but after it was determined that Priya is highly allergic to dust mites...well, we finally had our reason. Animesh wants to get a prescription for hard wood floors so he can write them off. Hmmm. Good luck with that, my dear.

Not sure how long the chaos will ensue. But, it will be well worth it.

Our Easter was a beautiful one--started out storming but cleared up quickly. The day was filled with shouts of "He is Risen!" at church, love, and smiles. And chocolate. And an Easter egg hunt.




Mimi and the kids got a ride on the golf cart from the parking lot to the Club where we enjoyed our yummy brunch. They got a kick out of that.


A few days ago we headed out to go to school and spotted this sunrise as we climbed in the car. It's totally unedited. And totally breathtaking.


And, on a another random note, does anyone out there love the Coffee House station on XM (besides Nicole?). It's all I listen to these days when I'm in the car (alone). I just love the acoustic versions of some of my fave songs. Cuz ya know, I'm a wanna be guitar player. Someday...

So, one of my new favorite artists played frequently on the Coffee House is Madeleine Peyroux. The song on my playlist is what was playing on my Ipod when I was cooling down after my run, and I can't get it out of my head. So, now I'm going to put it in your head, too.

Heading to the shower and then to "get some fun out of life."
