So I guess it's been a couple weeks...
It's lunch time. Just had sushi in the park (now a regular weekly thing). Solo today - beautiful weather and little foot traffic, so it's been quite peaceful. The past couple weeks I shared this time with a friend, which was also great. All in all I'm really happy I had this idea.
Tomorrow is my afternoon off. So far it's just been golf, and I think that's what I'll do tomorrow as well. But taking that time during the week has also turned out to be a really great way to break up the monotony of the everyday. I'm going to have to put some thought into what I can do to carry this on through the colder months, because being cooped up indoors for many months gets old real quick.
My crochet blanket project is temporarily on hold. Why, you ask? Because I started another crochet blanket project! This one was a spur of the moment decision and has a short timeline, so it's the priority for the next week or so. A coworker is expecting next month, so I decided to make a baby blanket for the little ragamuffin. Pretty much winging it - no real pattern to follow (I get a kick out of doing that!). Sorry, no pics yet. You'll have to wait until it's finished.
Oh, and I went to two concerts recently. Billy Joel earlier in the month, and Shinedown a few days ago. Both were supposed to be in 2020, but for some strange reason kept getting delayed???? LOL! Both were great shows, and it was awesome getting back into larger events again.
Well, that about sums up the past couple weeks. Time to head back to the office (I'm NOT talking about that - this is a happy post!). Hopefully you're all having a good week so far, and it continues on as well.

You know, that's a fairly apt description of the mood I was in. And I like the metaphor you came up with too - paints a nice picture. =]
The afternoon off was decent, but with an asterisk. Another post coming later today about that.
The blanket is around 40% complete. I need to have it done by next Thursday, so pics will be posted shortly thereafter.
