Last night’s plan was to walk the bike path in Athens with my cousin. Unfortunately, another round of thunderstorms rumbled through the region, dumping buckets of water as colorful lightening streaked across the angry sky.
In short, we didn’t walk. Instead, we put on our walking clothes and went out for Mexican. We had a terrific dinner and a relaxing time catching up. Then we went to the neighborhood big box store “to walk.” This is code for “we looked at plants and hair care products.”
Don’t judge.
The bad news is that today’s plan to show you pictures from the bike path fell through.
It just goes to show that we can plan all we like but there are plenty of obstacles to cause us to slow down or change course – for better or worse.
Did I need the exercise? You betcha. Did I need chips and salsa? Not really.
All the same, it was great fun catching up with another single gal and having someone to laugh with. We should do that more often.
I regret nothing.
Meanwhile, here are pretty flowers to brighten your day.

Happy Thursday, friends. Enjoy!!
BEAUTIFUL Canna lilies! (Or at least that’s what I THINK they are.) “I regret nothing.” is one of the most profound statements any human being can make.
Haha. I don’t believe in regrets!
Sounds like you made the most of your evening given the circumstances. It’s coming down buckets here at the moment – but very localized storm. A little hail, but not like last Sunday. I won’t need to water the gardens and pots!
It’s nice when nature takes care of the watering! It really was a nice evening and I was glad for it.
