Crap, when I suggested Taylors Falls I was thinking it was free...but you are right you have to pay! Nevermind.
I SOOOOO want to go to that Drive in!!! We were going to go last weekend but the movies currently playing are Terminator, Wolverine, and that lame Seth Rogan comedy. I was hoping that Up would be there! How fun would it be for $15 to be able to bring the kids to the movies for the night...no babysitter! And you can bring your own treats!
You seem to have a GREAT plan going for your staycation. sounds like a lot of fun! (I am super jealous!)
I LOVE the kebab idea. Grilling is the best!!! (P.S. Marinated shrimp is delicious on the grill)

Thanks, Z! I do think about that all the time. I think about the people that have come in and out of my life and wonder what the reason was. What did they need from me and what did I need from them?

I'm not saving the world in my full time job, but I am definitely tuned into my coworkers and I try to make my little corner of the world as pleasant and productive as I can.

So, you are right. I can concentrate on affecting the people in my life while still having that global vision.

Z -- what a fun time you have planned! I hope the "festival" in M'tonka turns out to have loads of freebies. Even with HALF of what you have in mind, it'd be a blast. I want to be adopted by you. Here's a link to a PDF with instructions on building and using a "box oven." Take care. Peace, Deb

Gossips are never a fun thing. I think the best way to handle that is to realize that there must be something very wrong in her life to want to spread so much unhappiness. I have a tendency to avoid anything/anyone who causes me pain or discomfort. :) My husband understands that for right now this is my coping mechanism. As I get physically healthier I may take on more confrontations, etc. But for right now I am good. Boy, I will tell you that I will never take being healthy and energetic for granted again.

Take care of yourself and please continue blogging. :)

You'll be fine tomorrow. Positive thoughts!

Thanks I need all the luck I can get.

May all go well today and your weekend is... not overwhelming.

With affection,
