The coffee is a good Guatemalan Blend, and a second cup will be downed later this morning. Alexa is awake and she said that today is going to be a busy one.

I started my morning with a 25-minute (Core) workout. Whew!

Today my playmate will be grocery shopping, and I am sure that she will get her froyo fix.

Today's Chefs Day. My Sous Chef and I will be back in the (cucina), tossing around pots and pans again. Today's fare is Grilled Cheeseburgers and Fries. My Sous will select the proper libation.

I will also be preparing my World-Famous Jalapeno Tuna Dip, for tomorrow's Laptop Video Game Fest. Woohoo!

We played "Wii" games yesterday and we were terrible at "Golf".

I just got back home from taking care of all of my errands for today. It feels good to be back in the cool Man Cave!

While I was out, I dropped in on my fidanzata, but I didn't get an answer. I will keep trying.

My shorty is out and about. I am going to start my new rock in a bit, but first I need to write a paper about a caregiving experience for her Writing Group.
