Friday the 13th

[linaewen]

I am the least superstitious of people (though I am beginning to learn that Murphy's Law is truth rather that fiction :-D) but I ALWAYS notice when it is Friday the 13th, for some reason.

Now that I have called attention to that fact, I have nothing much else to say. I had a totally lazy day of ignoring my duties -- except for a wee bit of laundry and the making of meals -- and it was nice. Now of course I have a bit more pressure to work harder, yet I am not feeling the pressure yet. Maybe my self-induced vacation will help me work better today; that's what vacations are supposed to do for you, right?

I have some things looming on the horizon that are a bit worrisome, namely a troop of contractors coming to mess with the house, starting on May 22. A couple of them, I learn, are going to be staying with us on top of that, so any chance of privacy in the evenings is out. Ah well, it's for a good cause. I realize that privacy should not be an issue in a guest house, but it's precious thing to have to help cope with the stress of the other things that will be happening that week.

I am leaving before the contractors leave to visit my folks in Wisconsin; they will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary on June 4, and my dad's 80th birthday on June 5. I'm looking forward to that a lot! I'll be coming back to bedlam in the guest house and a stack of folks coming for conferences, but I'll deal with that when I come to it.

Hmmmm, for not having much to say today, I sure said a lot, didn't I? :-D

Praying you all have a calming day today in which you get done what needs doing and you don't feel guilty or stressed about the things you don't get to.

You know I don't think it would have dawned on me that it was Friday the 13th until much later in the day. As I own two black cats I think they will cancel out anything I have to worry about!:)

I hope you have a wonderful day without worry or stress too, (((Lin))). I know my mom was so frustrated waiting for her floors to be done.

Friday the 13th is a lucky day for me since I was married on a 13th so regularly have Friday the 13th anniversaries. We're looking forward to our 25th anniversary now. Sigh. I am still on my honeymoon. Was it really 25 years ago?? Where does the time go??

Lin, I didn't know you ran a guest-house! When can I come and stay?!*looks balefully at bank balance* Maybe next summer ;)
I agree about Friday 13th, for some reason I always watch me step on those days (LOL) Although today I had an art exam, so maybe that's a bad omen.
I promise to not feel stressed about not getting round to doing some study ;)

I always notice when it's friday the 13th too. But seeing as how so many of my days feel like Friday the 13's lately, it hardly matters. (besides, I'm not superstitious)

I'm glad you're coming home. I can't wait to see you and have a good long talk and an even longer hug.
