Where's Abby (+ Dylan and dogs)

Jam packed Saturdays with community outreach in the morning working the Riverside Art's Market and wondering around Porch Fest.  Productive, lovely Sundays with an early morning rise dog walkin'  first run in forever   yummy breakfasts full of farmer's market goodies  running into good friends on the beach good old productiveness with SLP apps and experimenting witha new recipe, trying to copy Crispy's fig pizza and enjoying it by the river with D. Happy weekend, all!   First pepper harvest! My thumb is getting greener, yall! I wanted all the dogs.

So I'm a day late but here are my highlights from this week...  1. Being left with so much inspiration, motivation and dreams after finishing Paris Letters. Stocked up on my art supplies, made my list of strategies to save money, and "decided to start living the life I imagined," from the words of Wordle Myrtle Leslie. (Check her out. She's awesome. And maybe she'll start writing more if she gets more views and people pestering her. Readyyy GO!)     2. Getting my feet running on the sand again. 3.

It was nice having coffee with his "second family" who were very welcoming and lovely. Interesting too with all their African hunting experiences.  On top of the fort in Dragør. That night, we were on a mission to make a jungle for his room and ended up with this beast. It was funny too, after his very domestic day, we really had to get our motivation to go out for a party....
