Another glorious week-end over, not that I have seen much of it. Saturday passed with work and household chores. I had been prompting the Sickie for two days that we will be going to the friends on Saturday evening. Very unusual for him that he actually said yes in the end. I am so used to him refusing at the last minute that I didn't even get ready to go till the end.

I had nearly forgotten what it is like to spend time socially as a family. Sickie was excellent. Behaved very well and stayed till late too. What's going on? I on the other hand had way too much to drink and eat. Talked non stop and didn't want to go home! By the way my apology to the ones who had suffered my late night under the influence text message - that was the bottle speaking. Strange how you remember things when you've had too much! If I can't sleep then why should others?

That is why I didn't see much of the sunny day today. My head and tummy were rebelling against the abuse.

Isn't it fabulous that we are still having Summer like days? If I had that magic ring that grandma told me about then I would ask for my own Sun. Not because I am selfish and want to keep the sunshine to myself only but to keep a couple of my friends happy by not having the bright sunlight all the time. I don't mind what the temperature is like or the weather is like as long as it is bright. I hate grey and gloomy days.

One of my friends like dark evenings - for whatever reason. Another one likes the rain. A few like the cold weather. Some people I speak to are quite upset that we don't seem to have the usual set seasons. Summer and then winter. Lots of people like the snow. Ok, snow is nice to look at but why would anyone want months of it, especially when they go climbing mountains? Danger could be an excitement I presume. For me a variety of weather is exciting when you are on holiday or want to do something different. For normal day to day living I would rather have my days bright and sunny.
