Everybody's Working For The Weekend...

The last time this happened, Handsome and I were just dating. When he still thought he would be going to Florida, he lamented that we'd miss being together to watch the Brewers play in the World Series like last time.

Now, the silver lining in his catching my cold is that he'll be home. Plus, it looks like they'll be playing the only other team we would have cheered for if the Brewers weren't in it. 

This is going to be fun! Now to get my guy healthy so we can really cheer on our team!

My Kind Of Weather...


I'll be at work early today and tomorrow, and then I'm off until Friday night. Last week was rough, but I've been pampered and well-rested thanks to Handsome.

Unfortunately, it appears he's now caught my bug, so I think his Florida trip will have to be canceled. There would be nothing worse than for him to think he's well enough to travel, only to end up really sick, not only 1500 miles away, but in someone else's home. I'm so disappointed for him and feel personally responsible.

I'm going to do my best to make it up to him this week, and this trip will only be delayed. While he'll miss our friend's celebration of life, he's already planning to take the trip after the first of the year, and he'll be able to stay longer because it won't interfere with any band rehearsals here. He'll be able to play while he's away without feeling guilty about missing rehearsals here.

The rest of my week will be busy, too. I have this month's artist trading cards to make. The prompt is "Forest" which should be fun.

I have a few projects that have been on the back burner that need my attention, too. A gift for an upcoming birthday; a belated get well gift; and an overdue comfort gift. That will be in the form of a prayer blanket for a loved one. I'll explain more about that when I begin the project.

So, I'll be making up for a week off, but I'll be careful to take it easy so I don't relapse  especially since I'll be returning the care Handsome gave me. 

I'm also going to enjoy this cooler weather. Autumn is my absolute favorite season, so I don't want to miss a single day of it. Follow along to see what's next.
