The Day After the Night Before

Hello my friends! I’m a bit later arriving here than usual, due to the fact that I slept late this morning after partying hard last night at my brother’s birthday dinner. We all had such a wonderful time! A group of us played doubles tennis this morning and went out for breakfast afterwards. I couldn’t quite take the slamming of the tennis balls against my racquet, but two cups of black coffee helped quite a bit at breakfast. I’m on my third cup right now, for obvious reasons. I just cancelled dinner plans with friends tonight. I can’t take another night of eating and drinking after last night. I intend to read and watch a movie tonight with my hubby. Do you have any Saturday plans?

Those mornings after the night before could be quite taxing. I have had those in the good old days.

@DianneN I remember we skipped a sight seeing option in Melbourne just to spend time in the hotel

@allknowing My husband and I have done the same when traveling. Some hotels are so nice, that you don't want to leave them. lol

You are right! I am having a very enjoyable day and made my husband a very nice dinner. I'm going to take a nice bath and then we will watch a movie together. I should do this more often.

I've just had a couple of lovely days away into rural New Zealand to swim at the Taranaki Masters Games. Today, Sunday, my body needs to rest for different reasons

I had to work briefly this morning, then I've just been running errands most of the rest of the day. i'm home now, and just plan on resting and relaxing the rest of the afternoon and evening. Trying to stay off me knee as much as possible until I have surgery.

My son had a meeting this morning with his staff. Apparently there has been some slacking off with some. Resting and relaxing sound good to me!

I'm glad you took some time to relax, after so much fun from last evening. We took a trip to my daughter's house and today(Mon) I'm tired out! It's my day, to sit and relax at home:) As you said, maybe a movie with my hubby

My wild partying days have come to an end. I needed that day of recuperation like an old lady. I hope you are enjoying a restful and relaxing day. I had a huge energy burst this morning, so will take it easy the rest of the day. Hubs is going to make dinner tonight, so that's a plus.

@kobesbuddy I don't like eating alone. Fortunately, these days my husband is always around for dinner. Not so when he worked, but the kids kept me busy. We eat dinner out a minimum of twice a week, and often breakfast out. I love to dress up and go out to dinner. Glad you go out, too.

@DianneN Jay needs to pick up our new screen-door in Saginaw tonight. This means, I won't be cooking today:) I don't mind cooking, but I do enjoy a dinner out about once a week.

@DianneN That is great about the birthday dinner for your brother. I can understand why you had enough of drinking. Sounds like a better idea to watch a movie with your husband.

You've been a busy girl lately. Thank you. That's my sis-in-law, my brother's wife. She is the sweetest person I have ever known. Btw, we were holding each other up while waiting for the car to arrive. No more mixing drinks.

Glad to hear you had a good time. Sorry to hear that you had to pay for it in the morning! I can't drink anymore at my age. New Year's Eve is the only time I have something to drink...usually champagne. Reading and watching a movie as you said sounds more like my speed!

It is indeed hard to wake up early the next day when you had a late night partying before that. Usually, i will oversleep and not do anything early or call the office that I will be on half day ior report after luncb to work insted. That's a nice picture you have with this post.

You are lucky you can do that with your work. Usually, getting up early doesn't bother me unless I have too much to drink. Thank you! That's my sis-in-law with me - my brother's wife. She is a doll!

@DianneN You are welcome, but some of the best beaches are where you are right now! However, we do have some great ones in Asia too. Regarding trick photography, I believe what we go through here is an illusion; the reality lies beyond this shore - siva
