(mostly) quiet weekend
Jan. 26th, 2005 07:05 amWe spent most of the weekend being homebodies. Slept in (sinfully so-11:30!) Sunday morning, putzed around, went out for a stack of movies, then stayed up late watching them. Got some knitting done, By got in some quality time with the cats. Took things easy Monday, went to my committee meeting for HSA (that's the not-so-quiet part of the weekend), and spent yesterday knitting and puttering on the computer.
Movies: Chronicles of Riddick and the animated one that comes before it were good. The Disney version of Wrinkle in Time wasn't bad, but it was watered down a lot. I feel sorry for anyone for whom that movie is their intro to the story, the book's much better. Around the World in 80 Days was fun; I'm going to have to reread that book, see how much Disney messed with it.
I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for rain Fri and Sat, not the wintery mix that's also possible. We need the moisture, but I'm getting spoiled, and I just don't want to deal with more ice. Courtney and I get to go out today, since the weather's cooperative today, and work on cleaning up the last of the damage from the last ice storm (ie broken branches high up in trees).
( HSA is fast becoming a quagmire of drama. )
