Hello there! This is a short post just to check in and say that I hope that everyone had a great weekend. Mine was good after a frenzied week of trying to write my umpteenth essay for school ;-) I gave myself the gift of a break this weekend before I plow headlong into more studying and writing. It has been hard I will admit, but it will be rewarding in the end. I know that I'm doing just what I need to be doing at this point in my life :-) I'm way behind on basically everything it seems including tending to my blog which I love. Thank you for continuing to visit me here even though I've been quite sporadic lately. But I know that once I get past this next month, I will be able to come here and hang out more.
So many things have passed by that I wanted to write about here, including the lighting of the Olympic flame in Greece the other day. I know this may seem like a random thing to want to mention in the scheme of things, but I want to mention it because Brit Boy and I are going to the Olympics in London. We're both looking forward to it and this will be my second time going to the Olympics. I was lucky to get to go to the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta and it was fantastic and I got to enjoy it in my home state. So now, I think it's such a wonderful thing to be getting the chance to go again. It was hard to get tickets, and it's been a long time coming, but we finally got some tickets after a couple of tries. I will most definitely be sharing some photos of our adventures in August.
I didn't want to let that milestone of the torch lighting get too far in the past, because I wanted to share my news and let you know that I'll be sharing some pics. I'm really grateful to get this chance again. I look forward to it.
Now it's back to my school work. One more thing though. Brit Boy and I went for a walk this past Saturday and I took some nature shots of those beautiful green woods that we saw. I will get the pics up this week and share a bit of Wiltshire, England here on my blog.
Have a great day everyone and I'll be back with the pics !
Until next time...

Great score with the Olympics tickets! And it's really something else that this will be your *second* time attending the Olympics.

Oh Dori! Wish I was there with you! Olympics certainly are on my bucket list :)
Dear Dori, which games you and your husband will watch?
It should be exciting twist live!
I want to visit London soon and I know that I will treasure.
The city must be beautiful, ready to receive thousands of tourists and athletes from all over the world.

Sissym,
We're going to see basketball, athletics, and swimming. We couldn't believe our luck. I hope that you get your trip to London soon. We will have to meet when you get here! Hugs to you! :)
Today I was chatting with a friend who lives in London, he will help me organize my trip so that it is not expensive to me and I can enjoy. I want to know you, is in my plans. There is the possibility of going in October, I just do not know if it's one month rainy. I want to be able to walk far.
I feel happy that you will see what I love so much! I love just them!
Kisses
Sissym,
That is great news! I'd love to meet you in London! Just keep me posted on when you will be here and I hope that you can have a less rainy time when you're here! Hugs! :-)
