Weekend...and then some! :)

It's strange how quickly some weekends fly by...this past weekend was one of those kind of weekends and yet as I was going through the weekend, it seemed to stretch on and on...  

Friday night ~ coffee with the girls which included Leah via Facetime on an iPad!  It was wonderful having her join us.  Oh, how we miss that girl.  We closed down Meg's.  The barristas there were so nice.  At 7:55, one of them came to our table, "Now just so you know, we are closing in 5 minutes."  We decided to not make them have to come back and remind us in 4.9 minutes.  :)

Saturday was busy.  Farmtastic in the morning and then Trudy's for invitation assembly.  I wish I would've had my camera with me at the both events.  At Farmtastic, the picture would've been of Mrs. B, Lauren, and myself chit-chatting before the teens arrived for snacks galore.  At Trudy's, the haunting piles of 1,500 pieces of cardstock, 1,500 pieces of vellum, and 1,500 pieces of ribbon...not to mention stacks and stacks of envelopes and reply cards.  (Sigh.)  We did not get the 1,500 invitations assembled. Loooong story.  We completed 275.  

Sunday was my normal Sunday events...Sunday school, church, relaxing afternoon, choir practice and Sunday night church.  :)

And now -- here it is Monday.  It's storming currently.  When I say "storming" - I do mean terrential downpour.  The sky is quite gray and menacing.  

I completed my 1st Christmas knitting project and have casted-on for the my next gift.  It's going to be a cowl knitted out of variegated purple called Nobility.  

The beauty of knitting with chunky yarn is that I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the scarf is going to be warm and snuggly.  

After work -- I will be on my merry way to meet Lauren at the gym and then home for a supper of baked salmon and a baked sweet potato.  :)

Happy Monday!!!

While I was in The JoAnn Fabrics store this afternoon purchasing pre-punched paper for my 2024 garden journal, I said to myself, "Self,...
