1. Coffee at my new favorite coffee shop Morning Times
2. Knitting with nostalgia
3. Why taking a photo pre-party is a much better idea than post-party

This week has been a pretty normal week, good news, bad news, work, play, tea, knitting.

After a few nervous days, there has been movement from hospital to rehab for someone close (thanks for your emails) and good news from doctors.

I met two wonderful women separately in one day who reminded me about why its important to go for what you love doing and how it nourishes your soul and the world around you.

I watched the pilot episode of The A-Team on Hulu and fell in love with Mr. T all over again. As they saved the day, I knitted a shrug for a dog that was supposed to be completed months ago.

Watching TV shows from my youth is always part nostalgic glee and part annoying confusion as I remember watching those episodes, but then jumble them up with similar shows like MacGyver, Buck Rogers and The Dukes of Hazzard. After several decades all the good guys winning and saving the kidnapped heir/girlfriend/visiting cousin/hapless bystander blur together into one giant melee of good vs. evil, where evil was more farce than actual evil.

Last night I went a 40th birthday party prom complete with tiara and due to forgetting my camera, was only able to capture the aftermath of several hours of wine, Diet Coke, waterproof mascara, dancing to the Eurythmics, and singing all the wrong words to Sinead O’Connor on the drive over to Durham.

It was a normal, average week. Not quite over yet, but soon, in time, we’ll wake up on Monday morning and do it all over again. The good, the bad, the work, the play, the tea. And maybe even, the knitting. And it’s pretty freakin’ awesome. Happy Sunday.
