8/10: another

...indoor picnic lunch with a colleague at work.  We met for lunch and conversation at the start of the summer, and it was nice to have another one at its close.

8/9: taking

...the pamphlet I've been working on through one revision and then another, each one subtracting.  What's left is oh so minimal--and complete.

8/8: 2 delights

...in the morning:  "A Song About Myself" by John Keats (link) and online photos of Elaine Reichek's Back Stitch exhibit (link).

8/7: making progress

 ...with the design of a pamphlet I've been thinking about for over a year.

8/6: going

...to my (knock on wood) last medical appointment of the summer.  With luck, I won't have another one until December.

8/5: leftover

...grasshopper pie filling.  There was so much of it that it didn't fit into the pie shell when we made it last week.  Now we're having the extra on chocolate graham crackers, a deconstructed pie.

8/4: choosing

...new glasses.  I had gone in a few weeks ago and tentatively picked out two pairs.  This afternoon one of those pairs still seemed right, but I found a better set instead of the other pair.  Hopefully they will be ready for back-to-school.

8/3: scheduling

 ...a doctor's appointment for later this week.  Why is this a good thing?  Because I had been putting it off and putting it off and putting it off.
