camelly family, cherries, and splish splash

Three beautiful things from my past week:

1. It’s been a week of Conn friend surprises: Eri and ECN come to town unannounced and invite us to dinner. Erik calls to chat. Jason phones to say he’ll be out here later in the month and could we get together.

2. Monday is a particularly long, exhausting work day, and I don’t find out until after I rise Tuesday morning that India has canceled our 8 a.m. conference call. I decide to celebrate by going into the office a bit late on a gorgeously blue morning and biking down to catch the cherry blossoms before they disappear.

3. It’s raining when we get out of the theater and still when we get home. After Rudi parks the car, we snuggle back into our seats, hold hands, and listen to the rain fall.

What’s been beautiful in your life recently?

My violets are in bloom!

@Karen: I LOVE violets. I think they’re my favorite flower…

We locked Shadow (formerly Danny) in the guest bedroom for a timeout when he wouldn’t stop harassing poor Kady. When I went in to check on him, he was all affection and purrs and climbed up onto my shoulders and purred right against my ear.

@GK: Jeremiah is a big ear purrer, too, and did it the day we brought him and Posey home from the shelter (making me giggle uncontrollably). Rudi suggests that Jer uses this technique to get him up in morning, but I wouldn’t know. He doesn’t do it to me when I’m asleep.
