It is Thursday morning which for this week is our Friday. We have a three-day weekend and I can't wait. I love my time off. Working is Ok and most of us have to do it, but having time off is so great. My wife and I plan to enjoy it as much as we can.
I know I am going to be a very happy person when I walk out of the building today at quitting time. You won't want to be in front of me! I will get my great weekend started this afternoon and go from there.
I have much to do over the weekend. I have to do some work around the house in addition to having some fun. We are going to try and not spend a whole lot of money since we are going on a trip to New York City next month. So we need to have some cheap fun.
My garden will be a big part of my outside work this weekend. I need to do a few things to keep it going nicely. I have to sweat a bit to get my garden looking great again. I will do so. I still have tomatoes and beans making nicely. I have my flowers that are doing well also. The few herbs I have are doing
good too. We are in a drought and it has taken its toll on the garden. We are hanging in there though.
I also need to write over the time off. I need to sit down and finish up the screenplay that I started months ago for the production company. I can do that and I have to. I want to finish this play up and get another one started for the people. I will do this as best as I can. I want to blog a lot also. I have so many ideas written down on small pieces of paper that I need to write about. I plan on doing so this weekend.
Of course, I will have to fire up the grill. You aren't American if you don't do that on the 4th of July. My wife will make some potato salad (she's world famous for that) and make her flag cake (that's part of her fame also).
We will do a few fun things. We are going to sit down and decide what to do. I think we can come up with some fun stuff that won't drain our bank account.
I have to go now. I will get my morning stuff done and then head off to work. I am ready to get my day going and over with so I can come home to some real fun. More later!!
