It’s one of those long weekends that you just want to savor, but the time is zipping by again (for me anyway). If I could push a pause button, I would.

Yesterday, we celebrated a friend’s 75th birthday at a local Mexican restaurant. We had a private room and it was a lot of fun. The margaritas were flowing and the food was good and everyone had a great time. Afterward, we all headed back to our friend’s house to have coffee and dessert.

Coffee duty was mine, because it was one of those big coffee makers and I had used one before for PTO (that makes me a professional), but I measured something wrong because that coffee could have burned a whole through your stomach. My heart was beating out of my chest for hours afterward. I have to tell you, I worried about some of those older folks as I laid my head down to sleep. They were drinking it like it was going out of style!

Today, I’ve done nothing but errands. I did manage to squeeze a nice lunch in with The Fam, but now we are just sitting around being lazy. I was supposed to write-up two reviews, but my review mojo is nowhere to be found at the moment. In a little while, we may head over to a friend’s house for tacos but it’s windy as heck and cold! What happened to our warm weather?

If we don’t go, I will hunker down with In Stiches by Anthony Youn. It’s pretty funny and Tony is like several of the boys I knew in high school. Oh! I have book club on Thursday and I still haven’t read the book (The Thousand Autumns of Jacob De Zoet). I started it, but got stuck. I mean, REALLY stuck. Has anyone read it? Does the story move along at some point?

To all who attended BEA and BBC, welcome back and to everyone else, happy Sunday to you!

Note: I am having trouble posting comments on some of your Blogger blogs. It’s not recognizing my Google account or even letting me post anonymously. I mentioned it to some of you but if you’ve been wondering why I haven’t stopped by, this is why. I’ve been reading, but can’t always comment. I know some others are experiencing the same problem. Not sure what to do about it.
