Let’s see, what did I accomplish last week? Oh, that’s right, I made it through with most of my sanity still in tact.
Monday I was asked to be part of a radio interview for Women Work and Community. I was nervous, but think it went really well, just the same. Spent the morning at work, went to the interview and then home. I was in no mood to put up with MMA. Tuesday, kind of foggy on that day. Wednesday, worked, baked a pie, did some other stuff.
Thursday was Thanksgiving. I got up, baked another pie, had dinner at J’s parents house, then packed Ari in the car, made sure Z had all of his stuff in his car and headed south; south to sanity. Z decided to head back to So. China early to avoid a nasty winter storm headed in. Being so new to driving on his own, we all felt it was best to get him home safely.
I had such a nice time Thursday evening. I finally got to meet my new niece, M’iah. She was happy and sweet and perfectly cuddly. I needed that. I also got to visit with Uncle Bob, Auntie, John, Mike, Rachel and Rachel’s mom. We ate pie, and played games, just like the old days. It was a happy evening.
Friday opened with Black Friday shopping bright and early. I found it wasn’t as bad as I had heard it would be. I enjoyed being out with my girl and my dear sister so much. Ari had a great time and that was the whole point. She came back with bags of stuff and broke; a successful shopping trip! I think my favorite part of the day was sitting quietly on the couch with Mandy, Little Women playing in the background, taking turns leaning on each other, that evening. I think we were both dozing and just enjoying the company. I wasn’t ten minutes from her front door, Saturday morning, and I was missing her.
Sunday, I made up for lost time and got a huge DbR project completed. Service First Auto now has a sign on the front of its building and a two-sided sign in their shop waiting for a frame to be built for it. I also started their business card design, finished some branding work for another client and designed a Christmas card for my brother. It was a good day.
