It’s friday folks!

What are you doing today?

My friday is almost over. Reading, texting, watching my favourite series, cooking, kitchen chores, cat chores, grooming the cats, cuddling the cats, playing with the cats, hanging around and relaxing. Will do a little bit of garden work soon as it’s cooling down a little. Early to bed and early up tomorrow for the farmers market and brunch with a friend afterwards.
This week time flies as I am deliberately relaxing and enjoying staycation. Ups, have to go, I hear thunder!

I always love your Friday posts! I have had a slow morning and just put my tennies on to take Lupe on a long awaited (by her) walk. I’m bringing my phone and will take some photos of my meadow as I’m calling it now.

Happy Friday! Just lunchtime here so a few hours of work left. Just got back from a walk to try to settle my mind. It helped a bit. No real plans. A few people from our local sober meetup go to the Friday night outdoor music events. It’s usually still too hot out for me. I’ll see how I feel. It’s a really fun free music series, but I can’t tolerate the summer heat here. I do have a massage scheduled Sunday that I’m looking forward to.

Well it’s been a week… That’s all I have to say about it.
Friday night which it is by now ( current time18.20)
Will be spent with Pasta Bolognese, chips and sugar free soda.
Trying to go to bed in a decent time. School starts Monday.

Should’ve spent this weekend by the ocean. But my husband is at the hospital,as most of you know by now. So basically trying to do the best of the situation.

Friyay! I have never said that in my life before, please forgive me.

Finishing up work for the day and then home to try my self canned goods. If you never hear from me again suspect botulism, not booze. I’m kidding (mostly) another canning friend tried hers yesterday and she is so far still alive. :joy:

Tomorrow I picked up an extra 4 hour shift and then home to craft and relax a bit. Sunday hubs and I are riding bikes to our state fair. 20 miles in 100 degree heat sounds awful but the lemonade, corn dog, baby animals and carnival rides in the middle make up for it.

Straight up brag here, this paycheck saw the third and final payment of a $10,000 signing bonus for my job. They value me enough to pay me extra to stay and that feels good.

Best stay sober. I know what happens when I don’t. Happy weekend all.

Took a little evening walk with Mrs. Bloke, enjoyed a “picnic style” dinner of hot dogs and baked beans, and watching “Bee Movie”. Felt like something silly and lighthearted tonight.

I’ve had a busy day, I went to my sister’s place (90 miles away) to help set up for my mom’s memorial gathering tomorrow. I rented some tables, chairs and tent, I wanted to be there when it was delivered, and in my haste, I forgot my laptop so I could work from her place. :roll_eyes: needleas to say, got no work done today.

Got the tables set, set up a sound system and a live music setup. I just got home and am ready for a shower and then bed.

I’ll be making the journey back there in the morning, then its hanging with family and friends, mourning the loss but celebrating the life of my mom. Gonna be an emotional day. Its all good though. All good things.

You shouldn’t forget that people pay for getting the Clostridium botulinum toxin injected, and you would get it for free.:smile::wink:
