Weekends are a struggle. Do nothing and it feels as though you have wasted the weekend. Do too much and you’re exhausted running into Monday morning and a full week. Trying to find the delicate balance of doing just enough to not feel it was a waste, and keep everyone happy and engaged, but not so much that I have to drag my own ass about town when all I want to do is go hack to bed for a 2 hour map.
So in review 7 hours of party bus, baseball and rowdy friends on a Friday night, followed too closely on the heels by a nine hour ROM day trip using Go Trains and the TTC subway wasn’t an ideal set up for us. Not to mention it was with a girl guide troop of nine to eleven year olds with WAY too much energy. It was a lot for me, and I know it was a lot for my wife, whom is one of the troop leaders.
Today I’d like to nap, lie down, read or fall asleep while watching a movie. A true Lazy Sunday worth putting on the books. I think I’m on book five or six for this year. A third book of the Dune Series. I have all ready finished Messiah, and Children of Dune. Working on God Emperor right now. Plus whatever else I’ve read before. Not going to be a really high number of books this year, but a respectable dent in my collection. I have a Don Winslow book to read next, and soon a new entry from James S A Corey to contend with. I loved their Expanse universe, and read all nine books plus the collection of shorts which they produced to fill in some gaps and back story.
Truth be told I have some brand new (to me) Xbox games coming to the house. Which reminds me, I need to install the cable box for the tv this week. And get the other packaged materials up & out of the box. I need to cut the grass, plant several bulbs, and pay my tax bill at the bank. I have 3D renders to finish for tomorrow at 9:00am. Work means invoices getting paid. Yahoo!
