Weekend potatoing is going as planned.
Ordering Thai right now. Yum.
Movie or something later.
Listened to my audio book as planned (and fell asleep, which was no planned but totally fine).
Excuse me? Who gave you permission to exist?

Our wings are not tired.
I've mostly spent the weekend skimming though my book club book before Monday. I really need to start these things earlier.

Are your stitches itchy?
JZ roused me out of the house to go to Lights Plus, where we dropped some cash and got fancy light features *and* I finally found a reading chair that's Just Right for my Goldilocks ass.
In and out in about 40 minutes, so that felt productive but expensive.
Matilda is out and about with her Nana doing some shopping and wearing a very pretty dress.

Surprisingly not!

Quick recovery~ma, JenP.
We had ltc's family party yesterday and we have her kids party today. There is still very few kids coming to the kids party, but hopefully ltc will still have fun. I have forgotten how to interact with other humans. So, wish me luck with the parents today.

May the party be more enjoyable than anticipated. I'm sure ltc will have a blast, and hope you will be able to relax.

Hope it's going/has gone well, sj.
Dinner with a friend tonight. I am going to drive the car around the block to see if I can drive reliably yet... if not, DH will chauffer, which is kind.
I've gotten a little whiny in my brain about still feeling pain in my arm from a fall a whole week ago, which is pretty eye-rolly, considering how lucky I was. And yet, sometimes the crankies get loose.
I think being able to drive will make me feel better, so let me go test that...

Welp, I can drive. So that's a win.

Success! Gravity can't beat JenP!
We hosted my MiL over the last five days, and it was just lovely and convenient to have the garden apartment available for her.
She and Matilda spent a day poking around and shopping, and it turns out Nana likes riding buses for all the people watching opportunity.
I've got a friend pencilled in to visit in October, and I'm looking forward to doing more of that.

Yay for independent driving!
Read on the dock and enjoyed a really lovely quiet day.
