Away for the weekend

Just a quick note: I'll be leaving tomorrow morning to go to Bellevue for the weekend to spend time with my family. My mom will be there, and my sister, her husband and daughter, and we'll stay at my aunt's house. Unfortunately my aunt is going off on vacation Saturday morning, so I won't get to see her, but I'm sure we'll spend plenty of time with my 90 year old grandmother as well. I might drop online to check email, but I won't be online much at all until Monday. I have a new book on tape, one that just sounded interesting, and which I'm really enjoying, The Breaking Wave by Nevil Shute, written in 1955. I hadn't realized it was that old until I began listening. It's also set in Australia, and the reader, while English, has a very convincing accent, so that's fun too.

Hope that all of you have a lovely weekend.

Thanks! I did! :) Seattle is so pretty... but I was glad to be back in Oregon after a day. Portland is growing on me!

Thank you! It was surprisingly not awkward in ways I expected, always a plus with family.

Sounds like you'll have a nice weekend :D Book sounds good, is it actually on tape or is it on cd?

They are actual cassettes; Bianca the Power Subaru™ doesn't have a CD player. :D

(((hugs back)))

Miss you!!!

Hope it was a good weekend. And just a bit of fyi, I've posted my 'Fiesta Bowl Challenge fic'. It's on my journal and wolfmoon. How's yours coming?

Miss you too X X X

Hi sweetie! I'm back and in a very weird headspace. Hope you had a good weekend with the folks.

YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!

I'm a bit excited, can you tell? Sorry to hear about the weird headspace unless it's a good weird headspace. My trip actually went very well; have now posted about it with a picture.

We can talk this weekend! And you won't be off away from civilization! :::squees some more:::
