Good Morning to you!

We are discombobulated at our house. The a/c is out so we thought it would be too hot to sleep upstairs so we brought the mattress (king-size no less) downstairs to the living room floor and slept there. Course bout 11pm it got fairly cool so we could have saved ourselves the work but it's an adventure right? Tell that to Barry. He was NOT a happy camper. In fact, he didn't go to work today yet. And he still seems a bit sour. Rut Roh.

It was fun laying on the floor watching the big screen. When we were younger and only owned 1 tv (the good days for sure!) we used to bring our mattress down whenever the Olympics were on so we wouldn't miss a minute. Of course, that was back when the Olympics only came once every 4 years. And were actual amateurs. Without million dollar advertising deals. The good old days.

Anyway. What about this whole Greece burning thing? Dreadful! And they said it's endangering the site of the original Olympics in Olympia! Oh dear. Let's all send them good thoughts and prayers, ok?

I've always wanted to go to Greece. After Ireland, it's my favorite dream vacation spot. I would love to see the ancient ruins and the beautiful beaches. Plus, I really love Greek food--it's my favorite so it would be pretty cool to have it authentically. The dream would be to go to the Olympics in Greece....course I already missed that boat, hopefully it will come again. And drive by Ireland on the way....and have Cirque du Soliel be the opening ceremonies act...and stop by Italy to get some wine for the way home.

Where's your dream vacation spot?

A friend of mine bought a new mattress for the master bedroom and the old one live on the livingroom floor. I've not visited since, but I can imagine...

Yes! prayers for Greece!

One of my dream vacations is a cruise of the Dalmation Coast.

Maybe you were in Greece for the Olympics in a former life.
