Mystery Plant
What is it? Growing in my friend's yard. Very cool, but she definitely didn't plant it, and we're not sure if it is a weed or not. Any ideas?
UPDATE: I found the name of the plant. It is "Venice Mallow" or "Flower of an Hour" and is considered an incredibly invasive weed. Apparently the seeds can lie dormant for 50 years! It has a really pretty white flower with a purple middle. I called my friend and told her to get rid of it ASAP.

Patriotic Picnic
My parents live in a retirement community which is wonderful for them, because there are all kinds of activities they can enjoy with others their own age. Today they invited us to a 4th of July cookout at their clubhouse. It sounded like a good idea until we walked in. Suddenly, being in a room of 40 very lively senior citizens was a little overwhelming! So we loaded up our plates and headed outside with Mom and Dad to sit by the pool. There was a nice breeze, and we had a great time visiting. Visiting is the key word here, because even though it is a nice place, we're not ready to live there!

"...they were so crazy in love that they couldn't wait to be together! They rushed through their salad of green leaves, and then became as one..."

G-l-a-m-o-r-o-u-s
I didn't buy these sunglasses. They're a little too Fergie. Something a really famous person would wear. When we went to Hawaii in February, I found them in the door pocket of our rental car. I immediately put them on and wore them the whole vacation. I felt very glamorous, which was fitting for Hawaii. So today I found them in the kitchen drawer and put them on. They remind me of our wonderful vacation. And for a little while, I am glamorous again!
