I wanted to write last week

I had really wanted to write last week, but it just didn't happen.  It was the longest week I'd had in a very long time.  Tuesday evening I worked at church and then had a meeting.  Wednesday I wasn't able to leave work early, and I had yet another meeting at church.  Very long beginning to the week.

And Thursday was the longest, but it was wonderful!  This summer, I had read that Richard Thomas (famous for being in The Waltons) was playing the role of Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird, and the show was coming to Dayton.  I told Andrew I was buying us two tickets.  I love, absolutely love that story, and I knew with Richard Thomas playing the role it would be spectacular.  It was Midnight before we got home, but I was right.  It was a wonderful show.  Andrew and I used to enjoy theater performances, and now that the kids are grown we really should start enjoying them again.  It was absolutely wonderful.

I'd had early morning every day as I was helping a friend with school transportation, but I was looking forward to sleeping in Friday after our late night Thursday.  As we were leaving the theater though, I received word that our Early Care person couldn't be there, and I was moving VERY early Friday morning to get to work.

A friend had a health scare Friday, but all turned out well, and Andrew and I received our COVID vaccines that evening.  I went to bed at 9:00 that night and slept for nearly 12 hours.  I was exhausted, and Saturday Andrew and I both felt off, so we just sat around all day.

It was perfect fall weather last week.  The leaves were staring to change, and it was chilly enough, but sunny.  It was an incredibly long week, but the scenery was beautiful!  I love the month of October!
