Good morning world!  So happy it is Friday!  What about you?  It's funny to me that when I was in the working world, way way back when, I got excited about Fridays because it meant the weekends.  Sleeping in on Saturdays, unless the kids had events such as a swim meet.  Then cleaning that didn't get done during the week and grocery shopping for the next week.  

Now, I'm not out in the workforce.  I have worked at home on and off.  And for the most part, Fridays weren't as exciting as they once were.  Except for the weekends that we go camping!  Since Patrick has been driving a big rig, Fridays are exciting again.  He comes home!  I really miss him during the week.  We talked almost daily.  Text pretty often as well.  It's not the same.  I'll admit the day he leaves and sometimes the next day is my sad day.  That is what I call it.  After a year and a half, it's gotten a little better.  

Today, I'm leaving in about an hour or so to go to Branson, Missouri.  It's only about a 2-hour drive.  We spent our honeymoon there.  And over the 26 years of marriage, we have spent a lot of anniversary weekends enjoying shows, attractions, and the countryside.  We have been there for about 3 or 4 years, definitely pre-Covid.  

This is it for now.  I need to get finished gathering things and get to the car wash before I start out.  

Just a few of my thoughts and actions,
