It's been more or less a full week since I've been back home along the shores of the Bay of Fundy here at the "old homestead."
Unfortunately, I was sick for the best part of three of those days, but yesterday(Thursday) the old body felt much better and today it feels well - much the same - better.
But, I am glad it's Friday and the weekend is here.
In our area of the country, the weather forecasters seem to be on a roll providing us with a fantastic late September and early October outlook. Sun and warm temperatures for the next little while.
The reality is, that it is just another weekend coming up. Sure some will have special plans or perhaps a wonderful event to attend, like a wedding or a party.
For most of us though, it's simply another weekend.
However, I don't want it to be "just another weekend."
With Lynn being back in Ontario(been three weeks today) due to the passing of her Mom, things get rather quiet or let's say boring without her. And I've always been reluctant to do things or go places when she isn't with me. Mostly because she enjoys doing these things or going to different places as much as I do.
But, this weekend feels different to me.
Different in that, I'm going to do something for myself. Treat myself to something if you will.
So, with this outstanding weather forecast in front of us, I think I'm going to hit up Halifax for the day.
Walk along the waterfront; hit up the Seaport Farmers Market; go to the Art Gallery; or the Marine Museum of the Atlantic; walk along Spring Garden Road to the Public Gardens; hit up a favorite art store; stop in the see my daughter at her restaurant.
The list of things to do is seemingly endless.
And I get that it might not seem like much, but from where I sit, it is something that perhaps I just need to do for myself.
Even if it appears to be a tad selfish.
--as always with love--
