August 6th

1.  Dog feeling better = cozy coffee shop + matcha latte + "Positive Discipline: The First Three Years."  I'm doing everything wrong in my parenting...
2.  Stocked up on some tasty brews from around the world.  Kingfisher left me reminiscing of Jaipur sunsets.
3.  Driveway fun time complete with bubbles, chalk, and ant attacks.  I'm the weirdo drinking the sample of hot Watermelon Mint tea I received from David's Tea, on a Southern summer evening.

August 5th

1.  Trash tv, junk food, feel sorry for me type morning.
2.  Played Mario Kart in bed.  Winning.
3.  Still cannot figure out my schedule.

I always allow myself to wallow during the first day of any TDY.  At least there were no tears today, huzzah!

August 4th

1. Vet's office with Bubs -- liver infection.  Scared out of my mind
2. Watched Lily experience PlayDoh for the first time.  She's so particular with the placement of the cups and lids of each color.
3. Moonlit, solo drive, post-rain, in cool temps. Reminiscent of my college days.  Mind nowhere near cleared though.

August 3rd

First edition of my daily three.  Inspired by Reddit (http://redd.it/2chg5w), this is the start of my daily recap of my wins, losses, mishaps, and daily happiness.  What I hope to accomplish is nothing, other than a reminder of all the above, and where these memories are taking me in my life.

1. Cared for Bubs who is feeling ill.  House currently covered in urine.
2. Swam at the community pool for the first time, in the rain, with the family.
3. Read "100 Years of Solitude" during a relaxing night, a rarity around here.
