Today’s Travels

Just some scenes from today’s travels.

My grandparents:

Stuck in huge traffic coming home:

The reason for the huge traffic… yikes!

Lester Lives

I played my new Les Paul today. First time in over two months. I had two songs to work on and I only got to one, but it was awesome. I love that guitar. I celebrated a wedding anniversary with the woman who bought me that guitar for my 50th birthday last year and somehow that makes it all that much cooler.

Recovery Meets Cookout

Only people who have had weight loss surgery during back patio cookout season will get a chuckle at this post.

If you’re in the know, you’re welcome.

First Cookout Prep

We are likely going to have our first cookout of the summer today. Highly appropriate for Memorial Day.

I’m just prepping the patio for now. Setting up the furniture and making sure the umbrella still works and cleaning the grill.

Hope it doesn’t rain, right?

So Many Leaves

Bertha the plant clipping’s newest leaf hasn’t even opened yet and there is already a new branch growing in. She’s insane!

Milestone?

See this t-shirt?

I bought it shortly before the surgery. It didn’t really fit. It almost fit, but it was a smidge too small.

It still doesn’t fit all that well today, but it’s definitely better than it was.

So is that a weight loss milestone? Naw, probably not. Close, but not really.

Next time will be better.

Pillow Cat

I love when Patches perches on Jen’s pillows while she sleeps.
