Day 1294: Quiet time

Quiet day, finally.  No accidents, no meetings, no fires, no floods.  We took Molly to the vet, mowed the lawn, swam and read for hours.  It was peaceful and restorative.  Steve really needed a break and it was nice to see him again after a wild week.  

I swam 250 lengths for a total of 43.3 miles.  The exercise is so important for my aging body, but it wears me out and I get so hungry!  Red raspberries, blueberries, cherries and melons are all in season and are irresistible.  After a delicious, low calorie fresh veggie stir fry,  we topped it off with berry shortcakes.  Yum!

There were even more lilies blooming today, including several spectacular blooms like Jane Trimmer.    Many of the plants had a dozen flowers.  These few weeks are such a joy.
