Quick Breath

Good morning. Happy MLK Day.

I couldn't be happier to have the day off today. I had drinks with C and her husband on Friday after my hair appointment, lunch with my sister M and my cousin D before making centerpieces, and dinner with M on Saturday night, but despite my social time, I feel like I spent most of the weekend getting things done for my parents' anniversary party and as a result didn't get my treasured down time, that time (usually Sunday) that I like to be home, alone. Today will be my Sunday I guess. I’m on coffee #2 here at 8:30, the TV is on, I have plans to talk to D at 10, after which I will get my bacon in the oven and have my Sunday breakfast and a couple of mimosas. After that I’ll be fortified enough to tackle either laundry or housecleaning. Unfortunately I can’t spend the day doing nothing; J arrives Thursday night for the party weekend and my house is just a wreck.

I hope you are having a good time this weekend with JB and her girls…I imagine they leave today and you’ll be craving a little down time, too.

Love you,
Barb
