Sunday stuff

baronessekatThis morning started out bad. I wasn't awake enough for the phone call of Boo calling for the "what are we doing today" planning conversation. I snapped at her.
After being allowed time to wake and talk, we decided on a nice Sunday morning walk.
I went over and picked the Boo up and apologized for being a cranky, snappy witch this morning on the phone. I"m not sure I understand what she meant by that she feels honored that she's close enough to me for me to snap at her. But I trust that it's a good thing.
We did something different today for our Sunday walk. We went and walked the breakwall pier. We calculated it was a roughly two mile walk down and back. I loved it. The temperature was perfect, though the wind was rather strong. I think that though we did a two mile walk, the exertion we had to use fighting the wind (both to walk into it and then to not get thrown off our feet walking with it) may have made the exercise closer to the strength and energy used for a 3 mile walk. And we walked to the end of the pedestrian part, which coincidentally is just as you run out of Canada.
It was fun watching the Canadian Geese just floating along in the calm of the water inside the breakwall. One particular goose kept trying for a fish that was obviously just out of reach as he would go tail up and then his feet would start kicking in the air as he tried to go deeper.
There was also a loon in and among them. It took me a minute to realize it was a loon as the head and beak shape were different.
Further down there was a group of geese outside the breakwall and many of them seemed to be more or less body surfing. It was like the teenagers going to the older geese "we're cooler than you are. We're in the danger zone". Though there was one goose that seemd to almost be the lifeguard/chaperone watching. There was also a fledgling amongst the ones outside the breakwall. It reminded me of that little kid who always has to do what his older brother was doing. But it was also interesting to watch how when the waves and the wind got strong, the older geese formed a circle around the youngster to protect him.
We had some great conversations and tangents on our walk. One was a continuation of the conversation we had on the way back from Jugglers Tumblers and Bards. I have to find time (in my copious amounts of it) and write it up from my point of view.
then did a bit of shopping, a quick bite to eat with the girls, then got patterns made, discussed the norman I want to make and then came home.
My tummy is currently not happy with me. I've had way too much milk this weekend and it's letting me know I was stupid.
Got one of my over tunics done completely. Fixed a tunic Boogie made but didn't want. I'm calling it quits as it's late and I'm tired and if I work on any more sewing I'm going to be really bad in the morning.
Tomorrow is my last full day at the law firm (YAY!). Have to go to mom's after work to get pants marked for hems. Then have a 6pm nail appointment (desperately needed). Then come home. I'd like to get the brown hood done tomorrow. If I can do that I'll feel accomplished.
Anyway, off to bed
'night all.

Date: 2006-07-04 01:15 am (UTC)*G* I've confused people with similar statements. If I'm saying it, I mean that the person is clearly so comfortable with me that they are able to reveal their true self, even when that self isn't its prettiest. It means trusting that the person won't go away just because they've seen that your feet are clay. It means security.
