Weekends are for Doing

[rhyll]

My weekend has not-at-all gone to plan, for a variety of reasons. I seem to have spent most of the weekend feeling sore or sick or anxious or tired, or some combination of the above. But, oddly, I've had a very good weekend, considering.

I spent most of yesterday watching Justice League cartoons with J, and then had dinner with my father. It wasn't what I'd intended to do, but it was a pretty good way to spend a sick day.

Today, I meant to help buy a bicycle. Instead, I bought a sewing machine, a ridiculous gothy dress, and some impractical suspenders. I had Adventures, which I suspect were challenging at times for at least three of the four of us adventuring. I got a flat tyre and had to be picked up. I had biscuits and tea. I did my Greek homework, and did battle with punctures, spiders, and rust.

I didn't get the things I had planned to done, and I worried a lot. But I had a good time, and I felt like I learnt some new things. And I felt spoilt by the people in my life again.

In other news: I am still pretty terrible at the ukulele and accordion. I am branching out into being terrible at singing, as well. It is very satisfying.

Thank you for organising stuff; I had a wonderful day in spite of (or perhaps because) of the challengingness. Also, I found an old wooden ladder in a skip on my way home, was a wide-and-tall-load carrying danger to myself and others thanks to that and the furniture!

I can bring terrible singing, terrible acoustic guitar and terrible bass guitar to the table.

I am very impressed by your ability to deal with being challenged, and by your ability to carry wide-and-tall loads on your bicycle!

We should have more music nights/days!

I'm glad you had a great weekend with all things considered, challengingness and all.
