Spent a fantastic 5 day weekend at home. Amazingly wonderful for me, mostly because I had nothing to stress over, be it homework, work, papers, exams, interning, Pride... w/e. I. had nothing to do.
and it was glorious.
Just sat around. Cooked cookies. Went all butch with an ax in flannel on a couple of fallen trees... which leads to the next tangent.
Outdoor work is really soothing and cleansing for me. I get that now. I need to be able to rake, or chop up fallen limbs, cut grass, trim hedges, whatever, work outdoors. I need the country just a bit to stay sane. Or whatever i am resembling sanity.
I read a lot. At one point my brother came into the living room an sat on one couch while i lay curled up on the loveseat, an both of us read. That's it. I loved it.
Oh an we drank tea... an stole wheat thins from each other.
Rented movies, went clothes and media shopping, slept in, cooked french toast.
I needed this weekend. And now I'm sad 'cause it's over.
