Hi there...

 Window to my patio

 Morning Glories still blooming

In my garden

I have been so busy lately with no extra time left for blogging.

Hope you are all doing fine and I will be visiting your blogs soon.

It just seems there is never enough time in a day for all the things I would like to do.

One thing is for sure, I am never bored.

No matter how busy I am, I still have to read.

Just finished a great book "The Girl in the Garden" by Kamala Nair.

And have started another one "Vita" by Melania Mazzucco.

What are you reading right now?

P.S. I have just reconnected with a friend I haven't been in contact with for 20 years.
 We are both living in the same state and we are planning to meet soon.
I am so excited.

Have a great week! See you soon:)

My Girls

 Gracie

 Lucy

Gracie and Lucy outside having fun.

Gracie loves to chase her red ball, but Lucy does not really care much for running after a ball.

We have to throw a stick for her, but she gets easily bored with it.

Whereas Gracie does not know when to quit. I always say she could play for the Chicago Cubs and I am tempted to get her a shirt.

Go Gracie, go!

I am going to see my friend Claudia from Michigan soon. We used to work together and I have not seen her since I moved from Michigan to Indiana six years ago. The distance between us is rather large - 500 miles (800 km). For us Europeans that is hard to believe. You can drive from the north of Germany to the south in one day and here I can do the same and I am just in another state. It took me 8 hours of non-stop driving from Northeast Michigan (still the lower Peninsula) to West-Central Indiana.
 We are going to meet in Shipshewana, Indiana and I am looking forward to it.

Shipshewana has the largest Flea Market in the Midwest.

And it is Amish Country and a shopper's paradise.

 I have never been there and I am sure we will have lots of fun.

Have a great weekend!

Take care!
