Change in plans

Unfortunately, due to the threat of rain and wind in the Shenandoah Valley this weekend, our hot air balloon ride has, once again, been postponed. Who knows when we will be able to do it again - probably not for another year or so. :-(

So, Keith and I are enjoying a quiet, relaxing weekend at home - something we don't do very often. This is actually the second weekend in a row that we have not been away from home, although last weekend we had a visitor and I had to work on Saturday. So, it wasn't really as relaxing as this weekend should turn out to be.

We are currently sitting on our back deck - Keith is reading and I, of course, am on the computer. There is the usual laundry and house cleaning that is calling my name from the inside of the house, but I am just going to try and ignore it for the time being. The weather is beautiful - probably in the high 50s/low 60s - and I am trying to sit still and just enjoy the quiet time. (For those of you who know me really well, you know that I am not one to sit and do nothing for very long. In my opinion, there is always something that needs to be done).

SIDE NOTE: As I am typing this, a female deer just bounded through our back yard. It is not uncommon to see deer in our yard as we live in a neighborhood full of them, but it always nice to see them every now and then (especially when you are not driving and trying to avoid hitting them!)

I am looking forward to LOTS of football today and tomorrow. We will be watching the Cavs take on Wake Forest this afternoon and tomorrow will be the Bills & the Steelers (separate games but both on TV here...yippee!). All in all, this should be a very relaxing and enjoyable weekend with no where to go, no where to be and no one to take care of except for each other.

I hope everyone has a very enjoyable weekend!
