80's Night, New Glasses and Sleeping Til Noon

I slept until noon today, and you know what? I really needed it. In this video, I’m embracing the luxury of retirement and the permission to just rest when my body asks for it. I’m sharing some morning-turned-afternoon reflections, including my struggles with new progressive glasses (hello, motion sickness!) and my favorite cozy sweatshirt from a dear artist friend. I’m also taking you on a trip down memory lane with some old family photos from our local farmers market, talking about our new "Concert in the Park" tradition, and announcing my latest experiment: making friends with the neighborhood crows. Plus, I’m starting to brainstorm a "Summer of Intentions" (or maybe just a list of things I hope to do) to make the most of these beautiful months. Are you a morning person or do you enjoy a late start? And has anyone else struggled with new glasses? Let’s catch up in the comments!
