Progress? Or just a progression?

So things have been surprisingly quiet over here recently. I find that I've been kindof drifting - not in a bad way, just... Quietly going through life and cruising from thing to thing. Except for being very tired at the moment (I didn't sleep an enormous amount the last two days) and slightly headachey, things are actually pretty good. So lets see, what's going on?

Well, this past weekend I spent with my son and my parents. All four of us took the dogs out to the Poughkeepsie Railroad Bridge/Walkway Across the Hudson for a very nice walk. The temperature was slightly on the chilly side, and the wind was up in the middle of the river, but it was still really quite a nice day to go out. Plus, I was happy to use my Empire Passport for the first time! Yay random fun.

Sunday, my son and mother and I worked on more plates and food for my niece's dollhouse. Y'see, we make it out of this clay that you bake in the oven for 15 minutes at 275 degrees, and it hardens quite nicely. I stuck with relatively innocuous things, like bananas, apples, strawberries, and the like. I did make a head of lettuce (which came out... okay), but that's about as advanced as I got. Aidan - being the far more adventurous type - made a cake, a couple of pies, a bearskin rug, an old banana (going brown, don't you know...), and a dog.

The dog, of course, was brown with a pink head and legs.

Monday, I had my son in the evening; played board games, got home at 8 to watch a little TV, didn't sleep nearly enough, and have been feeling it ever since.

Yesterday, I picked up my new (prescription) sunglasses, and bought a new jacket. Met a very nice woman at the store, and had a lovely conversation about her wedding on September 10th. She looked extremely familiar - I'm not sure if that's just my faintly remembering her from the previous time I was in there (which was a while ago) or if I'd seen her more recently at the other store she alluded to working at, or even just somewhere else entirely. Whatever - I like my new jacket. Still didn't catch up on sleep, still feel like crap.

Today? My plans are... Well, mostly, buy something to cook at the supermarker, cook it, and collapse. Because I *still* feel like crap, and I need more sleep than I've been getting.

Very exciting, huh? Bet you're sorry you asked.
