Monday Night...
Do you ever have one of those weekends where you think, where did all the time go? It seems the longer the weekend, the less you are able to accomplish during that weekend. At least, that is how it is for me.
I was not very Martha this weekend (and that is not a bad thing. I am rarely ever very Martha because I normally can't stand the crap she does). Probably the polar opposite. Other than giving my house a thorough cleaning from top to bottom, I didn't accomplish one iota of the things I was supposed to do. I quickly slapped up a smudgeon of paint, but didn't even finish one wall because I just got distracted.
The good thing about winters here is there are many weekends that you can do indoor activities such as painting. Gus and I played a lot this weekend and now he's curled up at my feet snoring away. He's so sweet when he sleeps!
The New Year's plans...yeah, well I discovered as I get older I don't like taking the same risks I used to... case in point...it was snowing (lightly snowing) on Saturday and the roads were wet. Ed and I started heading up for Boston around 10 PM, about 1/2 way there the snow was starting to stick. I told Ed I didn't want to be driving home from Boston at 2 or 3 in the morning on possibly snow packed or slick roads. So we turned around, I went home, watched 1/2 hour of New Year's Eve with Carson Daly, saw the ball drop, then went to bed.
You know what? That was my idea of a perfect New Year's Eve. No stress, no hangovers, no idiotic drunken maneuvers...
Sometimes people wonder about my love of spending time alone. Just comfortable with myself and doing stuff on my own. Always have been. I'm not a loner by any means, but I always occupy my own time. Do you ever meet people who you just think are perfect being single? Well that person is me. Oh sure sometimes I think it would be nice to be a relationship, but it's not a desire that overwhelms my life or pursuits. I don't actively go out and whine about not having a boyfriend. If it happens, it happens. If not, well I still find ways to enjoy life.
That's about it for this Monday night. I'm wishing everybody reading this a joyeous, happy, and blessed New Year!

wordgirl - that is totally cool name dropping.
Abe - nothing wrong with spending time alone. I wish I could do it more often.
