every time we go out of phase
maura @ 9:04 pm
This weekend has been very stupendously great, even though we just did perfectly normal weekendy things. I’m not quite sure how it managed to be so excellent, but I wish we could bottle it for repeat use. And we accomplished a lot, too!
Saturday: cleaned the house, grocery shopped, went to the Cherry Blossom Festival at the botanic gardens with the neighbors (where Gus + our neighbor joined the thousands of other little scofflaws wading in the muddy creek), had dinner with aforementioned neighbors, and I finished writing a paper (yay!).
Today: finished the cleaning, took the extra recycling to the Food Coop (5 months’ worth!), went to the playground, resisted the ice cream truck (with no whining!), had a diner cheeseburger lunch, went to a birthday party (J+G) and the gym (me).
Of course the above was liberally sprinkled with Nintendo, but also with lots of reading courtesy of the 10 new (used) books we picked up today from a free books box on a stoop on our walk home from lunch. Thank you, anonymous residents of Park Slope, for bringing Sylvester and the Magic Pebble (a library fave), two Arthur, one Tintin, and one Magic School Bus books, and assorted other good reads into our lives.
Maybe it’s the spring is finally here thing. Or the getting outside more thing. Or the clean house thing (well, for me at least). I hope these good vibes carry on over to the week, too!
