make today LONG, tomorrow ... maybe not so much

The Captain ... in his typical nature to please... made today- another one to remember.  With breakfast behind us and the entire day ready to unfold, he suggested  a trolley, a walk, a ferry ride, lunch, window shopping, more walking, another ferry ride, another trolly ride, some additional walking, & a relaxed supper while tucked in our cozy B&B.  Since tomorrow promises to be stressful (to put it lightly), we needed (& deserved) to put it on the BACK burner!!
 IT WORKED
... the weather was dede-lightful, with lunch at the Spinnaker- where we used to dine 3-4 times a year when we lived up this way (& haven't even laid eyes on for at least 7 years!).  This man of mine is a people pleaser to put it lightly- but he will go LONG lengths to ease my pain of mind & body.  WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE!!

The entire day was wonderful (and he sorta had to talk me into such an active day to begin with)  One thing that we found particularly interesting was the fog that started heading toward SF as we ferry'd across the bay to Sausalito.  At one point, it completely enveloped the towers of the Golden Gate bridge.... and reminded us of "The Fog" ... a movie made in this area ... that looked a LOT like today's weather activity.  It was pretty fascinating to see The City disappear into the massive marshmallow fluff !!
    As for tomorrow.... it may be a great deal more difficult to wave his magic wand & make the real world go away, but I have no doubt that he will try.  But for this point in time, I am    NOT going to let it take up the space in my thoughts (as my sister would say).  I have just finished a short skinny vanilla  latte alongside a couple of mini almond biscotti .... and feeling pleasantly fatigued from a significant amount of walking.  It's a matter of minutes before I connect on FB with my friend & confidante (Lo) ... and then I'll be crawling into bed with the man who tries to make every day count.  We will chat a bit about the day, turn down the lights to read our kindles, then fall into what I pray is a restful & pain free night's sleep.  And tomorrow??  Well ... we'll just wait til it deserves our time & focus.

Everyday should be such a day. A goal to strive for.
