Well, I solved the mystery of the missing coffee cup.
I should explain: Beth always uses her favorite coffee cup, the one with kitties playing all round, happy and frisky. Yesterday, we couldn't find it. Beth looked everywhere -- in her bedroom, at her desk, the dining room, outside? Nowhere to be found.
It was in the microwave oven!
I found it this morning as I was making coffee and wondering what alternate cup she might want. It struck me -- she loves to keep reheating her coffee and she sometimes forgets what she's doing... well, that's what had happened.
This morning, she came down in sweat pants, a shirt and sweater. I told her how hot and sunny it is and suggested she try shorts and a T-shirt. She went upstairs to change and came back down in the same thing. She'd forgotten why she went up. So try again -- this time, she put on a short sleeve t-shirt, with the sweater over it. We put away the sweater. This is part of the reason it takes her so long to get ready. Even when I lay out clothes for her the night before, she forgets in the morning.
More later -- it's a beautiful day.
Folks came over for a little party today, starting about 3 p.m. We had kids swimming in the pool (Bethie too). We had some music playing, watermelon and snacks, and then dinner from the grill -- brats, burgers and chicken -- plus hummus, green bean salad, potato salad and beans.
Most folks stayed until sundown. It was fun!
