First week of July 2012

Still no luck on the job front. I keep revamping my resume and searching online listings.
The 4th was very nice.

Red, White, and Blue at the gray house.

Once again my DS did a great job in celebrating the holiday.
 

Volunteering at HPL went well.  
Downtown was nearly empty on July 5th.
I had lunch by the City Hall, overlooking Tranquility park 

Planting at City Hall

                                           

Water feature across form City Hall

I tried out a new bus route, it gives me the bonus of adding in some walking time too. This is very good since I am having to deal with high blood sugars again. Actually got a few more rows done on the Boneyard shawl.

Lunch downtown

Currently I am volunteering twice a week at HPL's central library. It is very chilly inside so I take my sack lunch outside to warm up. 
I have been dining either at the small pocket courtyard by the Ivenson 

or by the Sam Houston park, just across the street.

There is also a nice planting at the corner of Bagby and Lamar.

Of course when a Houston summer shower shows up at lunch time, it means just wrapping up a little tighter in my sweater.
