Ten on Tuesday: The Weekend
The topic for Ten on Tuesday is “10 Things You Did This Weekend”.
- Worked on the Shorewood Cardigan. But of course, I would be working on my knitting! Need to keep these fingers nimble and I want to make good progress.
- Did the laundry. Doesn’t laundry always need to be done? And weekends are good for folding since there is no rushing around and if there aren’t any plans for Saturday, one can then lounge around in a nightgown while you get all of your clothes washed.
- Sorted through the papers scattered around on my side of the room and put away some of my books back on the bookshelf. I, ahem, am a bit messy and needed to clear a path. <cough, cough />
- Gave hubby a list of stuff to get from the store since I wasn’t going out driving. Sounds boring, doesn’t it? But if hubby texts you, well, might as well take a quick inventory.
- Checked into Facebook from time to time. I like to keep up with what my friends are doing and talking about. There are good knitting groups there, so that’s a plus as well.
- Reading a book on Kindle Reader. I have it loaded on the iPad and have Kindle Unlimited. It’s a good bargain. The only downside is that Amazon requires exclusivity for a book to appear in Kindle Unlimited. Still, the number of available books is large enough that there are always options.
- Go to church. I try to go to church every morning and it is a great way to start the week.
- Visit my father. Just 10 minutes away or so and we make sure everything is alright.
- Had a bit of wine in order to unwind. Sunday is always a busy day, first church and then visiting father. It can get a bit intense and sometimes I’m on a mental overload. So having a nice glass of wine helps me to decompress.
- Well, I wish I could say that this weekend ended on a good note. But unfortunately, we got that phone call everybody dreads and had to spend some time to get confirmation about a death in the family, which was very much unexpected.
