I am thankful to have made it to the end of this week. The trip was a lot of fun but not particularly restful, and of course coming back on Sunday afternoon meant we were thrown right back into the usual schedule on Monday morning. I am getting this post ready ahead of time because I have an early appointment for my mammogram this morning and then have to get back for more (pointless) work meetings.
Since my last post, I have been able to finish up the hat I started just ahead of the trip, so now I have two for the charity pile that are ready to be washed, blocked, and put safely away:
And I've added some more stripes to my sock WIP and am almost to the heel (unfortunately they're only a small fraction of a Ruthie long):
We have a quiet weekend planned. It's going to be hot again, like upper-90s-with-heat-index hot, with a chance of rain every day, so it'll be a good weekend to stay in the cool and relax. Molly and I talked about maybe going to a local farmer's market tomorrow morning; she has a hankering for fresh cherries, and maybe we'll find some other yummy things to eat for lunch or dinner. The Mister has a high school friend in town on Sunday and they're getting together for dinner with friends (I may or may not go along). Other than that, the weekend is wide open and that's just fine with me. I need to clean bathrooms after skipping a week and would like to maybe sneak in a nap, as I doubt Ruthie will let me sleep in.
Whatever's on tap for you this weekend, I hope it's enjoyable. I will see you back here on Monday for my July One Little Word post -- can't believe this month is almost over!
Staying in is about all we can do to tolerate this heat. But, heading to the farmer's market sounds like fun. I may do that too on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend and stay cool!
ReplyDeleteYup, the heat and humidity are on the rise here for sure. I plan to stay put this weekend after the busy-ness of last. I washed all the towels yesterday, but the bathrooms do need cleaning, as does the kitchen floor. And there's a lot of laundry to keep me occupied - LOL. Have a nice weekend and stay cool!
ReplyDeleteThe hats will be much appreciated this winter. (It's hard to think about needing hats in this yucky heat and humidity!) You might have to measure socks in different units - Ruthie legs or Ruthie's tail. Hope it's a restful weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice to have a quiet weekend after a full one (AND a week's re-entry). The hats are wonderful, Sarah, and will be so welcome by cold heads come winter. (Because even though it doesn't feel like it right now, winter WILL come again . . . ) Enjoy your weekend. XO
ReplyDeleteA quiet weekend will be very nice!! Hope you find some cherries at the market.
ReplyDeleteWe're also planning a quiet weekend here. I love the colors in that front hat—I'm sure both will be well appreciated!
