Weekend Events

So, the weekend is coming to an end. Friday... not a lot happened this Friday night, which was fine with me because I am always wore out on Friday night - even when it's not a stressful work week. We rented a movie, Fracture, to watch. It was fairly good, I thought. Probably rated R for some language and "adult content" (whatever that really means) - it was about a man who murders his wife because she is having an affair. The actual storyline is less about the affair and more about how his conviction for the murder may not happen. I think it may be categorized as criminal suspense???

Saturday... Jeremy and I hung out and cleaned in the morning. I went to the bank and talked to the lady in line behind me. Her name was Ana, she is a beautician in town. I asked her price ($20) and took her number, telling her it may be awhile because I only make $50 a month because I am a volunteer. She said, if I was doing good for others, she may as well give me my first cut FREE! That was such a nice offer; I think I'll take her up on it. At noon, Jeremy and I left for Creede to see the play we missed on Wednesday night, Leading Ladies. The drive to Creede is about 1-1/2 hours and is beautiful. The mountains there are very chiseled, more canyon-like. (If we would have the camera, I would show you some pictures.) The theatre is this small little place with probably only 100 seats or so. We laughed so hard during it. It is always funny to see men dressed as women trying to be deceptive, and it's not really working. We definitely enjoyed it. The acting was excellent. USA Today said, it is one of the "10 great places to see the lights off Broadway." (See webiste for more info: http://www.creederep.org/) After we got home, we put on old, warm clothes and headed out to El Sagrado Farm where we get our vegetables and eggs from. It is the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) in the area. The event was a end-of-the-season potluck with live music and bonfire. It was great food and fairly good music - lots of accordian! We only made it to about 9:30pm.

Sunday... Jeremy and I woke up and went to the 8am service at church. It is called the "informal" service. There were about 10 people there. It was okay, but who knows. We kinda just lounged around the rest of the day. I talked to my mom - finally (we had been having trouble catching each other) - for about 1-1/2 hours. It was good to catch up on life back home. I hear my neice, Lilli, is a crazy, walking machine; I would love to see her go. I had seen her only take about 2 very tentative, almost not real, steps before I left. I can't imagine what she'll be like by Christmas. Likewise with my other neices and nephews, they seem to change so much so fast!

Work starts tomorrow and I think that will be good. We'll see how the week goes and what new things I get to do. I'll keep you updated.... of course!
