While at Costco today I tried out the electronic keyboards which only makes me want to get one-soon.

I’ve forgotten about posting on this goal. The laugh today. Mrrad gets out of the shower, hurrying to get ready to leave for rehearsal. He says “I’m in a hurry, I used the car wash. All I could think about was him strapped to the roof of car while it was going through the car wash. Have you seen the febreeze commercial with the chair on top of the car? I could see mrrad in his lazy-boy strapped to the top of the car going thru the carwash.

I slept for close to 12 hours last night because of the medication I took for my sciatica. I’m still a little light headed this morning (not a big fan of too much of that medication). Its a beautiful day today.

A day of “maintenance” was not as relaxing as I had hoped – the massage therapist was either incompetent or lazy or both.

We had a lovely dinner with our neighbors tonight – we were finally able to arrange a time for it to happen
FTF Weekend of August 20th
Awesome gig last night by mrrad’s band. Everything was cooking, except that he broke a drum head. A quick trip home and all was well. The trip home yesterday was awful. The family (3 of whom were sitting in front of me in first class) decided it was a good idea to give their 3 yo a strawberry frappachino right before the flight. He spilled half of it and then vomited the rest of it during take-off. So the first class cabin (and my seatmate and myself in particular) were able to enjoy the aroma of strawberry vomit. What were these people thinking? Poor kid. Misguided parents. Then it was a 105 minute drive home from the airport. Another accident. Second time this week that I had allowed plenty of time to get where I was going and then barely made my appointment because of a crash. OK. I’m done ranting. Should be a laid back week-end I hope.

One comment from Emmit Smith’s speech at his induction to the NFL Hall of Fame really resonated with me – “You define yourself, don’t let others define you.”

We have decided that this year, instead of going to a new island and staying in an unknown hotel, we will go back to our favorite hotel on the Big Island – and we were surprised to learn that our soon-to-be 13 yo nephew and his aunt will be at the neighboring hotel during our stay.

FTF Weekend of August 7th
Have been feeling very tired and not entirely well this week. I actually did not travel at all this week, which was great, but am still not up to snuff. Mrrad’s gig last night was great and since we did not have a lot of friends or family there, I didn’t have to act as hostess/social butterfly. Only a few things on the agenda this weekend. I could use the down time since I’m back on the road again next week.

In doing an employee review, I was saddened to see how frustrated she was and how we put her into a difficult position and did not support her to be successful-we have failed her.
