\"Nothing<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I’ll be honest: After Tuesday, all I really wanted to do was to take to my bed and stay there. So, Saturday morning, I did just that, not getting up until I was done being asleep. But the problem with post-return to standard time is that the sun sets here at 5. Therefore, sleeping until afternoon is not really as good a thing as it is in the height of summer, when the final daylight drips from the sky close to 10.<\/p>\n

I biked over to the library to pick up a book I had on hold, and then meandered around Georgetown for a bit. <\/p>\n

Rudi came home from his bike ride, and we headed to the grocery store, coming home with three bags of supplies. (It’s less exciting than it sounds; toilet paper and cat litter take up a lot of space.)<\/p>\n

We enjoyed burgers for supper and watched Saturday Night Live<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This morning, we got up early and were off to the farmers market, arriving home just in time for the moment of nature on CBS Sunday Morning<\/em>. I had time for a muffin and a cup of tea before I had to race off to the garden where I met a fellow gardener to help rake up leaves from the park for our compost bins. Afterwards, I picked two beans, three peppers, and the final tomatoes from the plants.<\/p>\n

Rudi and I went for a bike ride in the afternoon, heading over to a cafe he knew of past Georgetown. We sat in the sun for a while, and I started a book and found my place in a piece of knitting that had been sitting for ages.<\/p>\n

This evening, Rudi had plans, so I took myself up to the park to enjoy the final rays of sun with a thermos of tea and my book.<\/p>\n

At home for the night, I did some laundry, made a sandwich for supper, and baked a batch of cookies, before finishing my novel.<\/p>\n

It was a good weekend, and while I’m glad I got some sleep, I’m glad I got up, too.<\/p>\n

How was your weekend?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
