Saturday Night with Rose Kelly, Bringing San Francisco Vibes to Southern Connecticut for More World Cup Action

The day consisted of humid skies, long walks, a trip to Shelton and Ollies and a retreat to Oona's on Walnut Beach for the Colombia/Portugal tie which didn't show either team with a goal. Laundry done, groceries thought about, and summer time tasted with a low-key sort-of day and friendship. 

I believe my summer programs are at capacity and I really should mow my lawn before the ridiculous high heat comes later this week. I tried to nap with the slowness of the day, but I really am a failure at napping. I just can't bring myself to sleep during the day.

I think it's crazy that Rose lived on Lombard Street and frequented the windiness of the San Francisco pavement for 26 years of her life before coming back to Connecticut in her later years. I sent the photo to Chitunga who instantly replied, "She looks like Fran" (Patrick and Kaitlyn's father). 

I need the day, today, to be a wee bit cerebral and productive. I try so hard to be low key when I see the clock will allow for it. I think I did okay while I tried (I mean, I went to Ollies and even Lowe's to walk around). 

And now it's Sunday. A day that is meant to be chill, so I hope I can continue this weekend ritual. Oona had her kitchen and bathrooms redone and they look great. The rain stayed mild all day, so I probably should get out to water. Here's to GiGi's pizza and salads. Great evening last night spent with friends.
