Where do the weekends go?

Yet again, I find myself at another Sunday night? I have three day weekends and those three days are the quickest three days of my week.

I work a four day week and while JJ is at school I have Fridays to myself. That is a bit of a furphy though because by the time I help with listening to him and his classmates read it’s nearly 9.30 by the time I get home. I usually do the grocery shopping on a Friday so there’s at least another hour.

This Friday just gone I met some girlfriends for lunch down at the beach. It was a lovely day, just perfect to be near the beach catching up with these girlfriends I don’t see that often. By the time I had lunch it was time to be at the school for the school pickup.

On Saturday I started clearing out cupboards in the kitchen and back room in preparation for new floor covering that we’re getting next week. I also did some vacuuming, mowed the lawn and did some weeding.

We drove down to Port Willunga to go to the beach before having dinner at a friend’s house where we stayed the night. After getting home at 1pm or so today, preparing dinner, brushing the dog, unpacking from the night away, doing a bit more clearing out, it’s now 8.30 and I have to go to work tomorrow.

I didn’t even get the time to logon to the computer which was half planned because after last weekend I needed a break from it, but I’m still left reeling wondering where the last three days have gone.

I’d better open my eyes because before I know it, 2008 will be here.
