Waiting on Ben

I had the pleasure of going to one of my husband's gigs Saturday night. No kids, no gig for me. Just going to listen and eat. The restaurant is Apsara, in Blue Ash, and if you live in Cincinnati area, you must check it out. It is the younger brother of Teak, in Mt. Adams. Thai food and sushi. Naturally, I ordered a beautiful assortment of sushi, since this was a rare chance for me. Yummy! I don't mean to take away from the band, which sounded great...a really nice mix of music fitting for a relaxed patio setting. Ben has written some good songs to add to the covers, and all of the band members are really talented. So let me endorse the band, Waiting on Ben, and the restaurant, Apsara. It was an all around good time!

Quiet

This is so weird. Husband's gone to a Reds game (Go Reds!), the older 2 are at a neighbor's baseball game, and my little Aaron fell asleep on the family room floor--wiped out after a day of swimming. I just can't deal with time! I'm getting all shifty and ADHD, if you will. It's nervousness over relaxation. What is wrong with me? I'm determined that, with practice, I will master this!
