Backpacks are packed and ready to go. We’re a little late but family vacation, school physical, no more money, and we’re finally trudging to the finish line. Or the starting line for a new school year.
Every August my monthly writing group goes to lunch. We plan out the rest of the year’s meetings and catch up on the summer.
All of us are either “graduates” of the weekly bi-seasonal writing group or still attendees. That group starts in three weeks.
I love wandering around the country stores. Most of them have additions so it’s like going through a maze with each doorway leading to a new theme: Halloween, candy, kids, flowers, food, soaps, candles. So many things to look at and touch and smell.

New Pops celebrating the almost end of the off-season. Ride with Norman Reedus finished yesterday, Major Crimes continues tonight, and Containment finishes tomorrow night.
We also just finished The Day After, a Russian drama with English subtitles on Amazon Prime. Entire first season, worth a watch.
