Boulders and Vino
  About this time every year (when I take Fall classes) I start to feel like a stunt double. Not just any stunt double, the one from Indiana Jones who was chased by the giant boulder. In short, I have too much going on and my to-do list is the giant boulder. Each week I successfully dodge it (and grab my hat), only to be placed back at the start like some sick reloading video game to be chased all over again.
This weekend I was able to take a short time-out from this insane pace I'm struggling with to raise a glass of vino with my husband in celebration of our 14th wedding anniversary. We donned our snazziest clothes and hit the town. It was a lovely day full of window shopping and pretending we were rich (while buying very little.) Topped off as any good celebration should be by a giant plate of sizzling meat. Mmmmmm, meat. The week is half gone however and I find myself running once again from that dang to-do list. Counting the days till my boulder becomes a pebble.
