2) Out to dinner with friends yesterday and when I was in the minority on something AI-related, EM announced to the table that she was going to be on my side because she's my "Ride or Die." She beat Big A to it. It was epic.
3) I have no more professional tasks left this year--I've written all the letters of recommendation, completed all the committee work, reviewed all the articles... nothing left to do but stop procrastinating and work on my own damn projects!
4) To which end I joined a writing group this week for accountability and dedicated writing hours. I love that (a) its called "Summer Scrivening" (b) we meet only Tues, Weds, and Thurs--in a way that feels civilized and respectful of summer.
5) Speaking of summer... it's almost here! I prepped everything for Monday's Memorial Day picnic, but I forgot the raspberries for the red, white, and blue cake (I have blueberries and cream). I'm consoling myself that it's probably for the best, as raspberries turn so quickly.

That's the kind of friend to have. So loyal!
I think I need an accountability buddy this summer, too, for some writing I need to get done. It's nothing major, but I've been putting it (and my blog) off, too. My head just won't get right.
Raspberries have such a short window. I rarely buy them because of that, and I do love them. And frozen...just not the same.
Happy summer! It must be a good feeling to have completed all your tasks. I hope the writing group is helpful.
I am making strawberry shortcakes (with a sprinkling of blueberries) for our Memorial Day dessert.
Happy summer!!! I look forward to (hopefully!) reading what comes out of your writing group. It's so great to have that accountability and dedicated time.
I haven't watched Bridgerton but how fun to know someone in the cast!
Nance--(and for anyone else who wants to meet TWTH 9:30-12:30) LMK, and and I can ask the organizer.
Nance--Seriously, friends are the greatest treasure, and making one in adulthood is exceptionally lucky.
Steph--Your Memorial Day dessert sounds lovely!
Nicole--I too hope you'll read it. (I hope it gets written, haha.)
