You know that feeling that you get after you've been sick for a while and you begin to feel better? It's sort of as if you could run a marathon. YOU CAN'T. DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME. So, after throwing away my sneakers, I went to the gates of hell (a.k.a. IKEA). The place was mobbed. However, with the invaluable assistance and patience of Saint Laurie, I got what I needed and got out all in one piece.
I'm not sure that Laurie went willingly. However, since she left her car at my place and I drove her home after the wonderful fete chez Charlene on New Year's Day (many thanks Charlene, it was awesome), she was at my mercy and so off we went.
The day ended with my "to do" list the length of my arm and hours spent pouring over the most excrutiating puzzle (thanks mom). The cats have absconded with a large part of the border, but we're soldiering on. We could be missing 100 pieces for all we know.....If you were a kitten, where would you hide 100 puzzle pieces? I'll have the kids check the litter box carefully:)
BLUESFEST!
I have to say that Bluesfest was a bit of a let down. First, I was too tired to go to it every day - and that's a bummer. Ordinarilly I would not only be at BF from open to close every day but I would work either a full day or a half day. This year, despite being off of work, I couldn't even go every day. I missed three days all together and wasn't there until later in the day even when I made it.
I must say however that the Bright Light Social Hour did not disappoint. They were so great that Laurie, Char and I skipped BF to head out to Neat Cafe in Burnstown to see them for the THIRD TIME IN A WEEK!! Tres awesome. I'm now officially a groupie. Check out my photo below of Laurie and I with the smallest guys to come out of Texas!
