The rest did wonders for me. Hubby and I took theLower Green in the two-man inflatable ducky. The water was running at 100% according to the dam that feeds it, which means that one sluice was open. Last time we ran it, there were two sluices open, and the river was running at 200%.  The wording and the percentages seem wrong, but then I am not an engineer. To me, 100% would mean that all sluies are open. Anyway, the run was much less challenging this time and I liked it better. Next time I run it? It won't be challenging enough! I'll be ready for the 200%, which means I'll need to go up after a hard rain.

After the full Lower run, we still had plenty of time until the dam shut off, so hubby and I ran the last mile, or mile and a half, in our hard boats -- kayaks. I *loved* it! It was so freaking much fun! Not that there are anything but Class II rapids on the Lower Green, but it was just challenging enough for this noob.  And I am ready to do it again!

We had a wonderful time!

On the way home we stopped at an outlet and I bought two new rugs, black and brown, in the same style as the black and brown and burgundy rug in the dining room. Now, the living room and the foyer look so fresh and new! I love it!

So -- today I wrote 11 pages (so far) and am ready to put this baby to bed!

Later, Ya'll!

This morning I went to the doctor, and there was was a mix up in their apt. system and I didn't get in. I was totally ticked off. That is today's kvetch session, which seems relatively painless for you guys. At the time I was fuming. Good thing I didn't blog then...

After that debacle, I had lunch with Tamar Myers, my bestest pal / mystery writer. If you haven't read her cosy mysteries you are missing a laugh a minute. She and I eat at the Cracker Barrell once a month, except in December, and talk about all things publishing and books. And we laugh. And I relax, which is why you guys got off so easy on the kvetching portion of today's blog.

Later today...I'm going to take off more time to relax. You, know. Because of the deadlines. Counter-intuitive? Yes. It is. But it is fact too. If I don't relax I'l never meet the deadlines. So, tonight, hubby and I are heading to the Green River to run the Lower section in our two-man ducky and our kayaks all day tomorrow.  Whoowhoo!

Later guys!
