weekend peaceful adventures

New and old job thoughts are whirling through my head. What to finish, what to give up on. How to start as I mean to go on. 

Friday was a regular work day. The plan was to celebrate Christmas with E this weekend. E&M turned up on our doorstep as I was packing up the car for craft night. So M let us drop him off at a hotel while I dragged E with me craft night. Which was lovely. She was awesome about it, in spite of it being a bunch of strangers-to-her. And the craft group was awash with new job vibe. I was not the only one with new job news. Yay, new job! Sorry, S. I wish you new job, too.

Saturday I woke up early again (tail end of jet lag) and painted. E called while I was in the shower... they had a flat. Happily, we have the technology to handle this. T packed up his tools, so we went to rescue them. We spent far more time in a Discount Tire Saturday than I really prefer, but it seemed all right. I got to chat with E on the way to and from tire repair.  

It turns out that E&M have not caught up on recent Marvel movies. So we watched Captain America The Winter Soldier with the audio track turned on. It was a British speaker, which "bonnet" and "coach" everywhere. It was kinda cute. And like every other time I've watched a familiar movie with the audio track on, I saw (heard) things I had missed before. I wish we had gotten to show them the even more recent Captain America movie. 

Sunday we got to feed E brunch before they escaped. 

I'm trying not to think about the Incipient Kitten Invasion.
