A Weekend Alone

Well, alone with my toddler anyway. Kevin is going on the middle school youth group retreat. They are leaving tonight and won't be back until noon on Sunday. He got his stuff all packed up at lunchtime, so I don't think he's planning to stop here before he goes, but I forgot to ask him.

I have no idea what Alison and I are going to do for the weekend. The weather is crappy again. I don't think there will be too much playing outside. The Center for the Arts has an exhibit on pearls that might be interesting. Maybe I'll see what time they are open tomorrow and we can go to that. If it wasn't going to be so crummy, checking out Dow Gardens would have been a good idea. Alison is becoming facinated with flowers lately. I'll have to file that idea away for another time.

There are some good things about Kevin being gone, though. For one thing, I won't have to listen to him complain about just having gotten home Tuesday and having to go again today (I will still have to listen to him complain about being gone for two weekends and having to go away again next weekend, but not until Sunday). I will also get two good nights of sleep, taking up as much space in my bed as I want. :)
