Went to a Texas Rangers game last night....they won. But it reminded me that I really hate being out in the Texas heat. And it was a relatively cool night -- not quite even 90 degrees. Remind me again why I live in Texas? Besides the majority of my family living here, of course....

On a typical Sunday afternoon, I come home from lunch after church, kick back, read the newspaper, maybe take a nap, then off to our weekly singles group meeting. Today, because we went to the Rangers game last night, I had my entire afternoon and evening to myself. Yippee! After lunch, I walked 2 miles with my good friend Kelly -- she's been swamped with the start of school and learning the names of her ~600 students (elementary music) -- so we haven't talked much this past week. It felt so good to exercise a bit and to catch up with Kelly. I have got to work on getting exercise into my routine on a more regular basis. Then I went to the grocery store, read the newspaper, made this really fabulous corn dip and yummy chocolate chip cookies to take to a work outing at the Cowboys/Titans football game tomorrow night. Should be fun - but it'll make for a long day.

Now, I will enjoy resting for the remainder of my Sunday evening, perhaps watch the closing ceremonies of the Olympics, and try to go to bed early.
