brighter

so it was a much better weekend. i decided to take saturday to myself even though i had things to do...like grocery shop, start a project for my jewellery class and laundry. but instead of rushing around and then proceeding to complain that i have no time i TOOK time for me. one thing i was told once that you cannot make time but you certainly can take time and i think everyone needs to do that sometimes. so i had a lovely day pottering around the house and even cleaned the house a bit. and to top off the day tom and i shared great coversation, guitar lessons and way too many drinks with our amazing neighbours.

sunday was nice too, even though i did have the dull throb of the infamous hangover headache of one too many drinks. i ate indian food with my family for a little belated birthday celebration. naan bread does wonders for a hangover! then i was treated to homemade cake by my lovely husband and many nice gifts. but i think my favourite was from tom. he presented to me a treasure chest box covered in carvings that he did by hand and then inside was a fancy, professional camera! It is a digital camera with the lenses that change out and all the gizmos that go along with that. needless to say i need to sit down with the instruction booklet so i can figure out all the functions and how to use it. but i hope to have some time this weekend and then i can begin to post photos.
