Today we had a significant wind storm, which knocked over trees and out power all over the area. My power lines are below ground, a luxury that means I’ve only rarely lost power in the 15 years I’ve lived here, so I just got a day off from work to hang out at home all day. It was quite excellent.

In addition to “Take a three-day weekend,” which wasn’t originally in my plans, I’m hoping my weekend includes:

• Heading to the library to pick up holds.
• Stopping in at the local urban gardening conference.
• Shopping at the member sale of my favorite bookstore.
• Doing laundry.
• Playing my ukulele.
• Making cookies.
• Going to the farmers market.
• Planting my peas. (I may put that off until next weekend…)
• Working on my Sock Madness sock. (I’d like to be through the gusset decreases by Sunday night.)
• Vacuuming.

What do you hope your weekend includes?
