I finally did something fun, whew. Otherwise it’s been the same regular boring routine where I certainly do things that I enjoy, but does that count as fun? It was fun buying a new toaster oven since our old one died in commiseration with the refrigerator that’s being replaced in a couple of weeks. The new one is infrared and it’s very fast! We splurged an extra $20 to get white to match the other appliances. So that’s kind of fun.
But we actually went out last night because the realtor who sold us our house throws an annual cocktail party at her office for clients and gives everyone a pie. So we drove up to La Jolla and had munchies and champagne and chatted with people. It was fun.
I met my favorite former coworker for a very long lunch today. I hadn’t seen her for almost a year, although we text & talk relatively often. It was so good to chat in person. It was weird to realize that her D, who was 4 when my friend & I started working together, is a junior in high school. Time flies so quickly!
I’m anticipating huge fun starting tomorrow — DS/DIL arrive for a whole week! I’m having a blast getting the cabin ready for them. I finished all T-day grocery shopping today, will make bread, tomato bisque soup, and banana muffins tomorrow (some of their favs) and will try to kill time until they arrive late in the evening. Nothing like the excitement of anticipating those first hugs.
