It was a very enjoyable weekend. Friday was a normal Friday. I ran some errands, made some fixes around the yard, spent some quality time with a good book and had a long telephone visit with one of my BFF's.
Saturday, a granddaughter that I haven't seen in a few months came up and spent the day with me. We didn't do anything special, just hung out together. We did take a drive around the lake where the family used to camp and we brought home burgers & fries for lunch. Mainly, we visited and remembered past summers and events and brought each other up to date on what's going on with us today. She's a sweetheart and I felt warm and loved even after she left.
Yesterday a friend and I met after church and went to our town's version of a Home & Garden show. It's held at the town park and, by necessity, is on a smaller scale than Fresno can produce but it was very nice and the vendors had things worth seeing (not always the case). Last year we had nasty hot weather (106 degrees) and this year it was maybe 56 degrees, felt colder, and it was threatening rain. But we saw friends, including vendors, and just enjoyed being outdoors and walking around. I found some flowers that will be perfect around and under my large oak tree and I may now be able to make the fixes my drip system needs. I think I understood what he was trying to tell me.
We went to a little mexican restaurant for lunch after and then went our separate ways to run errands. I came home, installed a new timer for the lamp posts at the end of my driveway, the rain started so I came in, was attacked by a cat nap and then went back to my book. It was a fight but I managed to stay awake last night (okay, I had to rewind a couple of times when my eyes slammed shut for a few minutes) to see who the new celebrity apprentice is ... Way to go, Bret! By my standards, it was a terrific weekend!!!
