gilliansings's Journal, 31 May 2014

It's a beautiful day here in the NW, as it has been since Thursday. When I returned from sunny California it was raining here in the NW. The two days after that were overcast/cloudy until about 4 pm, then it was beautiful.

I knew this week was going to be tough, so I am very relieved to be on the other side. I got home late the night I arrived home from CA and had various unpacking tasks and making lunch for work the next day to take care of, so I went to bed very late. Then, my daughter had previously asked me to catch a movie playing in my very own little town on the following night. It was fun, but both of us needed to get home so there was little time to just talk.

Worked Thursday, hit the grocery store, came home to put it all away and prepare dinner in anticipation of attending the Jim Butcher author book-signing event. Got home from that very late, so another tired day Friday morning. Another trip to the grocery store for a couple things I forgot for our BBQ that night. Home to make fruit and green salads and marinate chicken breasts. Had lovely but tiring afternoon/evening with my kids, grandkids, and visiting father. Ate outside and laughed at the antics of my younger son's red-footed tortoise as he chomped on strawberries in the grass. My older grandson was a bit scared at first but eventually warmed to our 11 inch tortoise friend. He kept calling it a "red snapping turtle." It was really cute.

Fast forward to clean up, dishes, laundry and eventual bedtime. I slept like a ROCK last night. Got up around 8:30 and am still in my PJs right now (at 11:30). More laundry and unloading dishwasher. I'm ready to go do some exercise finally.

Hope to finish the book I'm in the middle of, then I can read the new Jim Butcher novel, "Skin Game." I will have to be VERY careful with it so it still looks pristine when my son gets home. I wouldn't want to damage the precious book with that hard-won autograph!

Have a great weekend all!
