it's been a week?

I know that nothing interesting has happened because the past several days have all blended together. Well, I shouldn't say nothing. Three things took place, but near or during the weekend.

1st: Book group was on Thur, the last until Sept thankfully. During the last meeting some of the women were talking about being thankful for the friendships that came out of the experience. "Speak for yourself" is what I say. I had difficulty forming friendships during Messengers (which is a Thur & Fri once a week for four or five months), I'm not going to be able to do much with two hours a night, once a month for four months. I'm not wired for easy friendships, which is why I say 'thankfully until Sept'.

2nd: On Sat Dad and I went to a seminar at church entitled "A Christian Response To End-Of-Life Issues", where three experts on the subject (two M.D.'s and a Ph.D.) gave talks about subjects from 'Practical Issues In Caregiving' to 'Euthanasia'. It was informative in a dry kind of way. It didn't help that the seminar was at 8:30 in the morning so I had to get up at 6:30 to catch the bus in time. I don't remember much of the ride home because I was nodding off in my seat.

3rd: Happy belated Mother's Day! Yesterday, Mom took Matthew, Dad and me out to lunch, then we all took a short drive out to her new place. Ooh boy, it's nice. I'll have to get her to take me out there again soon so I can get proper directions/street names and some pics to post. I jokingly told her that I'm going to find a way to bus out there every other weekend. Maybe not so jokingly.
