Musings on a Saturday Evening
It's Saturday night, early September and for the first time in a very long time, the weather is fairly decent. It was in the 80's today and is supposed to be the same tomorrow. Of course it's supposed to go back into the 90's on Monday but a cooler weekend is nice. It was so much better today that I plunged in and even washed my car!
I haven't done any knitting yet today but will when I get off the computer. I am finishing a small project. Then to decide what is next... one of two things. Or maybe both. :)
4 Saturdays from now my twin brother will be here for a visit for a few days. We're celebrating a big birthday this year so we wanted to do something a little different. So he's coming here for 3 days then we're both flying back to New Hampshire whre I will spend a little over a week visiting with my Mom and him. I will then spend a couple of days doing not much at home once I return. Then before I go back to work, on Saturday there is a bus trip to San Francisco put on by Butte County Legal Professionals Association (BCLPA) of which I am secretary this year. It'll be a blast! Shopping in SF and NOT having to drive! Plus friends of mine will be going, too, so I'll have a wonderful time.
Next weekend the KC meets so I need to get busy making something. Time to go knit!
Oh yes... musings... Here's something that's been on my mind. I can't wait to meet my grandson, Matthew Edward Holloway-Purvis, when he's born at the end of this year or early in January. I am planning a trip down south for mid-January so I will definitely be there after he's born. Sure wish I could go earlier... I haven't seen my daughter since she got married on Christmas, 2004. I miss my family terribly.
I am really lucky... I have an adopted brother (David), an adopted sister (Susan), another dear friend who is like a sister (Amy) and lots of other wonderful, close friends. Without them I would never make it emotionally. I've been thinking about that a lot lately, too.
I had a chance to buy a nice couch today and didn't because I just am not ready. I don't deal well with change. I may make my brother go shopping with me while he's here. Sure that isn't going to be his idea of fun. But he can give me half an hour to help. Well, if I'm ready to do it then.
In the meantime I will knit, figure out what I want for dinner tomorrow and do boring things like laundry, change the sheets, take the garbage out and just generally wish I had one more day off from work. :)
Hope YOUR weekend is going well. What have you been thinking about lately? (Time to not dwell on what I can't change... just what I can, right?)
