With only one day to recover from our whirl-wind weekend trip to Central California, DT and I were right back at it today. Dave left very early this morning for a day of meetings in Eugene to help plan/organize TrackTown12 (aka the 2012 Olympic Track & Field Trials). The fact I have a part-time hubby will guarantee the rest of America will enjoy a perfectly well-run (pun intended) Olympic Trials and will ensure America will have the best-possible team in London.
You can thank DT me later.
By the way, Dear Readers, you can be involved in the daily excitement of USA Track & Field by following TrackTown12 via twitter, or you can be a fan on facebook, or you can read the Track Town blog. Did you know Eugene, Oregon was chosen this week to be the host of the 2014 World Junior Track & Field Championships? This is a huge event for Track Town USA! July 2014! Support your American athletes by joining the links listed above. GO USA!
Am I on a track & field bender? Sorry. I can't help myself. Just re-watching the Oregon v Stanford football game reminds me that fabulous athletes are fabulous athletes - especially if they are on the track team and the football team!
LaMichael for LaHeisman!
So while My Driver was in The Eug all day, I ran three miles on the treadmill and prepared Lisa's childhood bedroom and sitting room for the painters. Tomorrow at 8:30a, our house will be filled with a crew of men who will be painting ceilings and walls - and another crew of men who will be pressure-washing the driveway.
Hopefully before it freezes and snows. Yes. Snow is predicted. Never a dull moment at Taylor Manor.
Did I mention Dave's college roommates are flying-in this weekend for the USC game?
Since I was busy all day and DT was away all day, it was lucky Brother Steve left us with a basket of produce from his garden. You make-do with what you have... and I had four yellow heirloom tomatoes, one yellow bell pepper, garlic, yellow onion, fresh basil and a lot of fresh arugula... (and pasta and parmesan cheese).
Add a bottle of pinot grigio and you have yourself a feast.



GO GREEN & YELLOW!


Easy late-night meal to feed my hungry and very tired Driver. Thank you, again, Brother Steve and Gina, for dinner!

Until my next update - from the painting-phase of the remodeling project - I remain your yellow & green correspondent.
