This has been a very long weekend.
Thursday was the Fourth of July. I celebrated by having a manicure/pedicure. The only place open was Walmart. I have orange nails to match my car! Then I went and visited Mom.
On Friday afternoon I had my third date with a man I met online. He had been very sweet to me. I'd get texts or emails from him all day long. He wasn't pushy and had lots to talk about.
Friday night I played trivia with one of the meetup groups. We won first prize. I contributed one answer. What field was Margaret Mead famous for? "Anthropology!" I was doing terrible on all the other questions. But I enjoy the people and the game.
On Saturday I had just made my lunch and Lupita called and came over. We had a great time - went to 2 thrift stores, saw "World War Z" and had Chinese food for dinner. She is a lot of fun to be with.
Today is Sunday and I have almost completed a maxi dress that I'm making for my trip to Hawaii. Somebody gave me the fabric and it looks very Hawaiian. I'll post a picture when it's all finished. The directions came from another blog and they are super easy.
I was supposed to go to a club with another meetup tonight. I'd rather sew than be stuck in a crowded noisy place.
It's good to do what I want to do.
A spot for Joanne's musings, photos, tutorials and especially PINK POODLES!

December 16, 2012
Yesterday I went to visit Mom. Then I went to Fuddruckers to get a hamburger - figured I need to eat something substantial occasionally.
It took so long to get the burger that I stuck it in my purse so I could eat it in the movie theater. I watched Skyfall - a James Bond movie. It's the first James Bond movie that I have seen without Jim in 15 years.
It's not too bad going to movies alone but I'm going to have to practice going to restaurants alone or I'll have to start cooking myself decent meals.
Today I met Andy at the Edwards theater on I-10. We had lunch at Cafe Adobe and then we went to watch The Hobbit. The Hobbit had some boring bits but mostly it was pretty good.
The area has changed a lot since I was there last. The covered mall part is gone. Now there is a satellite police station. Dave and Buster's (used to be Jillian's) is still there. After the movie Andy and I played skee-ball and whack-a-mole. It's been a long time since I've played games like that, too.
So, I did well this weekend. I went out and enjoyed myself.
