my friday evening - snacks and a good book (the absolutely true story of a part time indian); my new favourite drink - everyone MUST try this; the amazing afternoon sun on friday; adventuring on a cold saturday; nails painted; rock balancing at the bar; beer and basketball on sunday; thackeray's vanity and sons of anarchy season 3 in bed
Friday: I worked from home on friday, which I would like to say means a relaxing day – however, it usually ends in me working far later than I would, were I in the office. so I worked quite late, and then took a walk out to get my hair cut, and get some quick groceries. I enjoyed the remainder of the sun on the porch, and read the rest of my book, ‘the absolutely true diary of a part-time Indian’ (sent from my lovely friend alex, who – living on a reserve as a teacher right now – attests that it is one of the closest to the truth that she has ever read). I wish I could say I went out, enjoyed the night, but instead, I will truthfully admit that once the sun went down I did laundry, lots of laundry, made a good dinner, and then crawled into bed at 10:30, and watched sons of anarchy. I was asleep by midnight. and it was glorious.
Saturday: woke up nice and early to meet Erin to grab some leftovers that were remaining at her place from the weekend before. we had a catch up over coffee, and then I walked the long walk home - battling the cold wind, too stubborn to acknowledge that it wasn't as nice as it was supposed to be. stopped for some additional groceries, and made some vegan poutine for lunch. because of the weather, my head was killing me, so I got into bed and spent most of the afternoon doing low key things: watching sons of anarchy and napping. managed to fit in a visit with a friend, as well as a pop by at the local bar to try out the drink that Jason, the owner, had invented for me, to accommodate the whipped cream vodka I requested. I love my bar.Sunday: woke up after a fair sleep in, and met my former roommate Alicia, for basketball and beer (and some lunch). watched my favourite team Baylor lose to the team I chose to advance in the tournament (sort of a win win for me), and then moved to starbucks with her so her and I could mark, and write (respectively). we parted ways early evening, and I fit in a good chat with my parents on the drive home (hands free, I promise!). then made dinner, and cleaned a bit, before settling into bed with some jewelry making supplies. made 1 of the pieces for Thackeray's Vanity's spring line, and did a repair and renew job for a girl at work. watched the final episode of season 3 sons of anarchy (seeing a trend here?), and went to bed nice and early...
Hope everyone enjoyed some amazing weather this weekend! Especially since Monday morning brought us a revisitation of winter weather - got all the sun we could!
