THE MONDAY REPORT

On Friday, Rich did his thing over on campus, greeting the visitors to the Alumni Association's Football Fridays at the Eck. He loves meeting fans from all over the country and usually has a story or two about somebody he met from here or there, near or far, who enjoyed some beverages and a sandwich or two from the Portillos booth contained therein. This Friday he actually saw somebody he went to high school with in New Jersey!



On Sunday, I got myself dressed in outside clothes and went with him to a volleyball game. (I even tried to put on a little lipstick and mascara to commemorate the occasion).


I like watching the volleyball. It makes me remember playing in high school. (Yes, I am short and round and have a vertical leap of about an inch and a half, but I could set the ball and serve like nobody's business).

These girls, though, can PLAY!


And then...last night...a few hours of stitching:


 

So that's the report, Dearies. Very quiet. Very boring. But absolutely just what I needed to head into a new week. I've already done my "school" for the day and am now going to settle in with a cold brew, maybe a movie or two, and my canvas for company. Rich is snoozimg in his chair (he's wiped out from a weekend full of ushering), and I think we're doing leftovers for dinner with a nice big salad.

What's new with you, Dearies? Are you all happy and safe and healthy and well? Come tell me what's new with you! Happy Monday!

  1. Yesterday, I did a sheet pan turkey breast plus sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, onion and mushrooms for (Canadian) Thanksgiving. Had a turkey sandwich for brunch today, and am looking forward to leftovers for dinner!

  2. Looks as though you and Rich had a productive and relaxing
    weekend. So glad to see you out there all beautified to meet
    the world. Today my birthday is mingled with the joyous
    observance of the release of the hostages and all the goodwill
    and jubilation that accompanied it. Calls for another candle
    in the Grotto......That new needle project looks like a winner.
    Enjoy.
