Hate winter. Said it a bajillion times already. If you’re like me, and love being outside and doing activities outside, and if you live in Indiana (and especially in the burg), the things you CAN do during the winter months are different than what you WANT to do. Blah!
In the summer months, Perry and I will take a walk with the dogs during the time we break for lunch. When 33 degrees is considered warm, I’m sorry, I would rather eat at my desk. This weekend has been pretty darned good though — even with the cold that January brings. After a very hectic and extremely productive week, I was excited to do …absolutely nothing!
I’m a gamer — love World of Warcraft! And I love to read. So since Friday at 6:00 PM, I’ve done just that. I’m all about PVP (player vs player) in game, and while in queue to enter battlegrounds, I read books. I’ve devoured 2 so far, and will probably get through 1 more before the work-week starts all over again tomorrow. No business books for me on the weekends — I read Sue Grafton’s U is for Undertow and Tami Hoag’s Deeper Than the Dead (both are very good I might add). Still enjoying the whole Kindle thing — at least until the iPad is available.
But other than killing Horde, sleeping till noon, reading books and baking friendship bread — I also ran across this awesome find!!
The first thing I thought of (besides that I’m old as dirt), is that my Grandmother made my dress. Of course, girls attending this year’s prom will vying for the perfect dress at all the trendy places — trying to out-do their friends. Their parents will be worrying how they will pay for them. I am willing to bet I enjoyed my proms just as much way back then as girls do now. I will also betcha that I got the same excited feelings in my homemade dress as they will get from putting on their designer one. Ya think?
