TGIF

This weekend more than most I am grateful for the workweek to cease. I need to get back to normal routines and housekeeping. No soccer this weekend, no working, no demands. Drew and I had talked about going camping because we never got to do it, and since I had given my word, I was willing, though I have to admit, the idea of sleeping in a tent in the cold and the rain wasn't very appealing.





I checked online reservation to see if the parks were even open. They are, though I can't imagine why. Only one or two sites were reserved. I ask Drew which park he wants to go to. He hesitates. Then surprise of all surprises, he changes his mind. He decides it would be better to wait until next summer and go then. I am relieved. And delighted. Then he drops the bomb. Turns out the NewsBoys are going to be in the Rochester area in November, and he really wants to go. I had also said I would take him if they came to town. Yikes!





So now I have to see if I can afford to take him. I sure hope so, though I'm not crazy about taking him. I don't bother to tell him that I didn't think I could have survived a weekend of camping the way I feel (I had begun to think whether I could manage to sneak out of the tent after he was asleep and curl up in the car, turning it on here and there to stay warm). And I don't have any way of knowing whether I will be up to that concert either, depending on the results of the biopsy.





I will find a way for him to go though. If I can't, maybe I can bribe someone to take him. We'll see. Right now, I'm just glad its Friday, and there is a choral concert tonight at Eastman. Drew is happy to watch a movie and let me go. I plan to enjoy it to the fullest and think about laundry tomorrow.
