My Low-key Weekend

I had a pretty good weekend. I went to a few art galleries on Friday night. Saw a great show at Space but the art was out of my price range. The tragic Marina was touring the galleries too. I haven’t seen this mess in a long time. She looked like she’s been sleeping in an alley and her wig was askew as always. I’ll explain more about her in a future post.

Saturday I ran a few errands. I called to check on Patty and she invited me to dinner. Janet’s husband has been in Toronto so she has been staying with Patty. Jerry, Steve’s long time friend, was there too. Janet prepared a simple pasta dinner with vegetables from the garden. I brought a pumpkin pound cake that I made (thanks to La Pequena for the recipe). It was a nice evening. Patty is doing as well as can be expected.

On Sunday I relaxed and ran a few more errands. I ran into Patty at Homo Depot. We ended up going to Old Santa Fe Pottery to look for flowerpots. After that I dropped her off. She was flying solo last night because Janet went back to her house in Castle Pines. I’ll need to check on her this week.

K called later in the evening. I miss him. He’s still in Festus, MO. He spent Saturday with my brother and sister in law who live in Ballwin. Apparently my mother is afraid she will die before she sees me again. She’s not sick but I haven’t been back in St. Louis for at least eight years. I guess I’ll need to spend a weekend in St. Louis while K is there so he can meet my parents. Something I’m not looking forward to.
