The Life of Lou Ruppert

I finally got my invitation written for my annual Dandelion Wine party. Each spring we introduce the previous year’s wine at a party that takes place a week or two before the dandelions bloom. Last year, I experimented with making a written invitation to hand out to friends and acquaintances, and it was a huge success. So, this year I did the same thing. It’s a combination sales pitch and cartoon, so it takes a fair amount of work.

I also got caught up with all but the last three exercises of the twelve assigned to us last week. And I did my grocery shopping, and picked up coffee. It’s great being able to catch up with things that have been piling up. I even got a chance to watch some TV.

None of that compares to being able to sleep in until after 8am. Cashing in a vacation day is worth it just for the rare experience of being able to wake up rested on a weekday. What a difference!
