More than 60 reasons this month rocked.


This month’s highlights include:
A pink boa, a tambourine, a free mocha coffee, and a baby bib.

This last week of July I volunteered up at Camp. 
I saw friends and made new friends. 
I handed out (too many) churros and I attended TWO Square Ceremonies. 
I celebrated my 60th birthday and 
MOST IMPORTANTLY
I became a grandmother!!!!!
I received my Raggers' white rag, 
slept in a tent in the Chapel in the Pines, 
and dressed up as a villain etc...
I ate a scone, donated Ishkaboobie fodder, and gave away swag.

I also saw my first motorcycle camper drop off which was epic. 
I wore funky earrings - I gave away funky earrings. 
I wore many hats, but especially a bucket hat!
Picnic foods, crystal candlelight, and music on the lawn. 
Ravinia Festival continues to bless us with fantastic concerts.
(I dress up there too.)
Beatles tribute.
These folks dressed up for the Abba tribute band.
Flowers, gardens, and hammock naps.
Voting, colors, sending and receiving snail mail.
Yummy foods, thrifting, dog sitting, and fun socks.
We went to a Pizza Festival in Chicago. 
That's a fox right there.
Friends, puzzles, and writing.
Humor, church, and learning from my messes. 
Road trips, family, and lake views. 
Lighthouses, ice cream, and traditions. 
Life continues to be a puzzle.

So many things bug me.
So I advocate for change.
America, lets figure this out. 
 Please continue to spread LOVE.

Peace be with you!
I'm off to meet my grandbaby!
