The long weekend of house managing Funk Lab Dayton is over. I will admit I enjoyed myself, seeing folks I knew, and loved seeing the talent and energy, but it was hard on the body. I paced myself well, but by midafternoon on Sunday, I felt the body readjusting itself.

Just before 10 PM, last night, I walked into the house, changed clothes while the pooches pottied, and joined them on the deck for 45 minutes. It was so invigorating to be out in the fresh air.

This morning is chilly. I tried working from the deck but was drawn back inside to my study. Chief remains on the deck where he keeps an eye on the backyard, a responsibility he has taken seriously for many years.

I am resting until the early afternoon and will be out and about with loved ones.

Make it a great day!
