I'm supposed to be writing wedding thank-yous right now. Once I get started, I actually like remembering who came to the wedding and it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. It's just getting started that is so hard. I am trying to break it up to an hour or so during the evenings. That helps a bit.

I think I will stall just a little more to mention that I was listening to This American Life podcasts yesterday while removing the vegetation layer from some areas of the lawn I want to landscape. One of the episodes featured DeSmet, SD. How exciting is that? A national program featured a small town in SD. The piece was about Laura Ingalls Wilder living there, the contemporary tourist industry of DeSmet, and the writer's big-city perspective on the small Great Plains town that works together to do big things.

Okay, later folks. I better write some thank-yous. Who knows, it might be yours I'm writing next.
