Home alone

[inner_storm]

Michel had to leave early today for a bigband rehearsal, a workshop and a barbecue with afterparty. He's also staying over the night because that's just easier. So I thought I would have a whole 24 hours to spend on my own, which sounded pretty nice to me. But it turned out a bit different as Bram (my godchild) called me to ask if I could take him and one of his sister swimming. They know that I like swimming and with the weather being this hot and sunny, I actually liked the idea, although I had to get used to the idea of not spending my whole day on my own. Before I went to pick up Bram and Claudia, I went to my parents to have lunch there and pick up my trousers that my mom had to make shorter for me. My brother and his girlfriend were also there, so I asked them if they felt like joining to the pool. Katrien felt like it, my brother didn't, so he stayed at my parents to help them with something and Katrien went along with us. The pool was really freshening and the kids were wonderful. After swimming I brought Katrien back to my parents and brought Bram and Claudia back home. My aunt insisted that I should stay there as they were having a BBQ as well and it would be stupid if I would go home and prepare dinner for just myself and I liked the idea of BBQ so I stayed a little longer. Afterwards I played some badminton with Bram and set a date for his next sleepover at our place.

Now I'm home and I'm enjoying the rest of my evening on my own. I just finished a letter, which is now printing and I hope I will be able to finish the book I'm reading (still The Discovery of Heaven by Harry Mulisch). Tomorrow, I plan to sleep until Michel comes home and will (hopefully) wake me up with a breakfast in bed... *lol* A girl can dream, right?
