I took photos at a softball tournament in Boulder, CO on 1 - 2 August, around 8000! It took some time to review them, then select a few for editing from every game I attended.
On 3 August, I had a three-hour electrolysis session, and two more hours on 5 August.
On 6 August, Susan and I, along with our good friends Carl and Gina, attended a live show by Spinphony at the Soiled Dove in Denver. Spinphony is a Denver-based electric string quartet (a cello, two violins, and a five-string viola) that arranges and performs mash-ups of pop/rock and classical music. They played several tunes from their new album 'String Crossing', like 'Tell on Me' ('Take on Me' combined with 'The Willaim Tell Overture') and 'Eleanor of Seville' ('Eleanor Rigby' combined with 'The Barber of Seville'). I know it sounds like odd combinations, but it really sounds amazing. Check them out on You Tube.
On 7 August (Friday), we attended an end-of-season pizza party for the softball team. The next day I finished all of the photo editing and began loading the photos onto some custom-printed flash drives for everyone on the team. Sunday, I met up with eight young ladies from the team who wanted me to take some photos. We took some pics at a local softball field, then headed over to Memorial Park in Manitou for more. Several of the girls brought multiple changes of clothes. After around 5 hours, I had about 300 new photos to review. Later that day Susan and I went to a graduation party for one of the softball players, and I also delivered all of the flash drives I had loaded with game photos.
On 10 August, I had a three-hour electrolysis session, and two more hours on 12 August. The next day I had a laser session for my arms.
Yesterday morning (14 Aug), I noticed something in our neighbor's tree. Upon closer inspection I realized it was a young raccoon! Although we live near a forested area, this was the first raccoon we had seen since moving here over a decade ago. It stayed in the tree all day, and this morning it was gone.
Today, Susan and I took a little break. After visiting the hair salon, we went out for lunch and did some shopping. I found an awesome summer dress at Nordstrom Rack, along with some clothing from Ross and TJ Maxx -- and of course a stop at Victoria's Secret!
I also need to mention that over the last three weeks we have had a special visitor drop by for overnight visits on two separate occasions --
@Sophiaprincess2019 ! It's always great when another member of the unicorn herd stops by for a visit.
This was my shopping outfit today... I can honestly say, I never expected to look like this.
Love always -- Jessica Rose
