Memorial Day Weekend 2010
May. 29th, 2010 09:37 amToday I plan to take the girls out. Peter may be staying home to finish the novel he has been writing or he may come with us. We do plan to spend some family time together this weekend be it playing board games or watching a movie together.
I finished the first part of my writing assignment. Now Peter has to look it over and work on it a bit. More about that when we can talk about it. I was pretty pleased in how it turned out.
Now it is onto the puppets for Field Day. I have to find my fabric coupons so I can get what I want at a reduced price but it shouldn’t be that expensive even if I can’t use the coupons. I plan to do progress photos of the pieces. After that it is Shoreleave both the art show and the costume call. I have a pretty challenging piece that I hope I can execute.
There is a lot going on out here on Long Island because Memorial Day Weekend is also the start of the summer season. We have had people walking down our street to the ferry which will take them to various points on Fire Island. There is increase traffic out to the Hamptons. Our population does go up on the weekends. And then Sunday evening (well Monday this week) the cars and the people go the other way. We know how to avoid a bulk of this extra traffic but not all of it.
If the weather stays this nice, I plan to take a book and settle into the hammock this afternoon for a good read.
I found out today that Coheed and Cambria gave Peter and me a shout out at their concert on Wednesday. I thought that was really nice of the guys. We would have been there but Peter was under the weather so we didn’t.
I am grateful for pleasant days and pleasant nights.
