Some things that made me smile this week: Warm weather!
Something i struggled with this week: Running. I skipped my midweek run, then the weekend runs were HARD.
Something tasty i ate this week: Fresh strawberries. Straight from the farm. Can’t beat ‘em.
Something i learned this week: Ex-husband bought a new car. Why he told me this is unclear.
Something from the bridge table: We reached a grand slam that no one else bid on the following auction. (2H)-2S-(P)-4N-(P)-6C!-(X)-7S-All Pass. 6C showed 1 or 3 keys with a club void. The hands were AK876 A765 J854 – vs Q9532 K AK2 K875. It’s cold.
Some things i am doing towards my goals: Nothing in particular. Just the ongoing stuff. This answer could get repetitive.
Something i am reading: I started and finished Practical Magic, by Alice Hoffman, which is May’s book club selection. Currently reading The Name of the Wind, by Patrick Rothfuss.
Something happening around the house: Playing Bridge Base Online with Lance.
Something i am thinking: About how Lance and i are opposites in some ways (risk taker vs risk aversion, optimist vs realist, spontaneous vs planning), and how it can be frustrating for both of us, but also how we complement each other because of it.
Something i am hoping: For safe travels.
Something i am looking forward to next week: The Flying Pig Regional in Cincinnati. We are going to meet Lance’s parents and brother and play bridge for a long weekend. There is something about Cincinnati and flying pigs, because they also have a Flying Pig Marathon that same weekend. What is with the pig, ya’ll?
Something captured: $50 at Wednesday night poker, stakes being $1-3 (NL).
