Holiday Cheers!

Have I mentioned how happy I am to be on vacation?...This coffee tastes better and this robe feels more comfortable than usual. I don't need to choose between the book on my coffee table and my to-do list, and my to-do list isn't daunting. I'm so in vacation mode I actually went out on a Sunday night!!!

My friend L called after the game to let me know that she and her husband D were heading to our old local haunt (the Polish place you've been to). I had a migraine and really wasn't up for it, but knew it was the right thing to do. I find it so easy to hibernate, and am usually so content to do so, which is exactly why I decided I should seize the opportunity to be social. I'm glad I did. Our friend T (yes, that T) was also there with his girlfriend and he's always a hoot, and we had a lot of fun. As I was pulling down my street at 10 (on a Sunday!), I was glad for every minute I was out, and thought about how rarely I do something like that anymore. Usually I go out by myself for dinner, or with C or W for drinks or dinner. I can't remember how long it's been since I stood with a group of old friends at a bar and laughed like crazy.

I think I'll sign off for now before I refill my coffee, but may be back between loads of laundry or later in the day.

Love,
B
