I have been thinking lately about the songs that give me a lift, and it dawned on me.  They are all about optimism and hanging on until tomorrow.  I have been obsessed (as Kelli Osborne would say) with Andrea McArdle’s 1997 recording of Tomorrow from Annie.  The sun WILL come out tomorrow, right?  Sometimes at the gym, I will put it on a loop.  That, and some of you may remember my old ringtone – Put on Your Sunday Clothes from Hello Dolly! sung by Charles Nelson Reilly.  While it isn’t about tomorrow, it is about living for today, which is also pretty uplifting.

Anyway, living each day, and looking forward to tomorrow.  We went to the golf outing for the Stroke Center on Wednesday.  David didn’t think he did well, but he did great for the first time out and first time left handed.  I was impressed.  When we get back in the fall, we will try to pick it up again.

Otherwise, I have been busy packing everything up and ready to leave on Sunday.  I feel pretty prepared, and we are both looking forward to getting under way.  I finally booked our flights to and from Vermont after Paris and before Spain.

We also have plenty of homework to do on the ship, and Holly told David that he should just leave it all at home, and have a good time.  At this, he grasped his notebook and held it tight and shook his head.  Anyone who knows David understands that he loves homework and to practice.

Tomorrow we have dinner at Donovan’s, as a sort of Bon Voyage, which will be very nice.  I made some pistachio Macarons last night.  They were a bit sticky because I think the nuts were a bit oily.  I think I read that it is helpful to dry the almond flour in the oven for a while.  Next time.

The valley has been very busy with Coachella Fest going on.  Lots of young girls who look like they are extras in Hair.  It is kind of funny, but they seem to be everywhere.  Very good for all the towns in the valley, even if the traffic sometimes is terrible.  I looked a the roster of acts, and there were a few that I had heard of (just the names) and only one that I actually could say that I had heard before – The Pet Shop Boys.  I told Bill (tennis instructor) that I was surprised to see them listed.  Surprised that they were still around!  Liked them a lot, back in the day!
