Others writing the Sunday Somethings: Kerry
Something that made me happy this week: Playing bridge with my female partners. They are just delightful people, and don’t fall back on the same old crass fart-humor jokes all the time.
Something i struggled with this week: Motivation, energy. I’ve just been in a funk in general.
Something tasty i ate this week: Watermelon!
Something i learned this week: The overgrown trees around our house are encroaching around the roof and gutters. We need to do something about that before they do any damage.
Something from the bridge table: There was a tournament in Chapel Hill this weekend. I underled an Ace against a slam. It was the only lead that let it make. Grr. That’ll teach me to try and be creative.
Some thing i am doing towards my goals: I gave another Toastmasters speech this week. Only two more to go to finish the first book.
Something i am reading: Already finished Picking Cotton, Our Memoir of Injustice and Redemption, by Jennifer Thompson-Cannino, Ronald Cotton and Erin Torneo. Currently reading Storm Front, first book in the Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher.
Something happening around the house: Just got back from an exhausting day playing bridge in a facility with no A/C. Ugh. Still can’t avoid having to do laundry, though.
Something i am thinking: My body always wants to stay in the same state it’s currently in. If i’m awake, i want to stay awake. If i’m asleep, i want to stay asleep. Lazy wants to stay lazy. Active wants to stay active. What is that about?
Something i am hoping: That my brother enjoys his last year in his 20s. Happy Birthday, Adam!
Something i am looking forward to next week: Another money IMP game at our house Friday night. And then a do-nothing weekend (i hope).
Something random: I bring my lunch to work with me every day.
Something captured: One more from Chicago.
