Happy Friday Everyone! it's really weird being here in the evening instead of the morning. Rain all day and it's just miserable.
My daughter is away for the weekend on a ski trip with friends. Her one friend came last night, stayed over and then they left for the resort the later part of this afternoon. Check-in wasn't until around 3-4pm so they hung out here. Originally they were going to go early but the weather was so bad they decided to wait.
I got a text before that they arrived safely and some friends were already there and others were delayed. All in all they should have a good time.
Meanwhile, I'm getting ready to make myself some dinner. I'm having coconut shrimp which I haven't had in ages. The best part is I don't have to share it 
I have some tv shows to catch up on tonight and over the weekend. I also have to pick my next book so I'll be browsing through my Kindle to see what jumps out at me. I just finished the last two books in the Alex Cross series by James Patterson so I'm ready to pick someone different this next choice.
My day flew by and I figured I'd pop on to say hi before the day disappears altogether.
How was your day? Anything fun planned for the weekend?

I'm sure they'll have a good time but not sure how much the weather will cooperate. At least there's plenty to do in the resort if they can't enjoy outside activities.

Happy they arrived safely and that the weather cleared enough for them to go.
I’m sure you will enjoy your alone time, but hope you don’t get lonely. You sound pretty upbeat, so stay that way.
Nothing fun planned for the weekend. Just hope to see our friend in the hospital and take it from there.

I was worried about them traveling to the resort but yes, glad they arrived safely. Now I can take off my worry hat and enjoy the weekend.
Hope you're able to visit your friend in the hospital. It's never fun when someone we care about is in the hospital.

Weekend has come here already. Saturday at 2pm we will be attending the burial of our most trusted staff.
Sunday is for church. Other than that, nothing special is planned this weekend.

Nothing planned here. Pretty tried to talk me into going out for pizza but I still have most of the all-meat pizza still in the fridge. She's not happy with me right now. 
(I keep telling her I want Chinese but she isn't interested. 
)
Hope you enjoy your weekend.

Nothing planned here for the weekend. We have a bus trip next Tuesday. I hope you enjoy your time alone. It's good it's only for a few days.

Sometimes it's fun not to share and to be alone, for me anyway. I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that today is already Friday again.

I don’t have anything planned this weekend, but next week is my birthday weekend so I’ll save the fun for then.
Did you ever watch the Alex Cross series, I think on Amazon Prime? I was afraid it would have too much violence for me, but it sure looked interesting.
Yes, check in with us when you can, and we’ll try to entertain you. Well, we can try anyway. 
I can barely entertain myself.

It sounds like a cozy, rainy evening for you, and I’m glad your daughter arrived safely and is set for a fun weekend while you enjoy your coconut shrimp and some relaxing TV time.
