Friday's weather was quite spectacular, but since I was home alone with Sarah I was only able to accomplish some of the indoor chores. Saturday dawned cloudy but dry, and it stayed that way long enough for me to clean up the yard and mow the lawn. Unfortunately I did not have enough time to start sowing grass seed to patch the bare spots before the rain started. That task will have to wait along with some of the other things I want to get done.
Saturday night involved a birthday party for Jenni, apparently the same day as the Mifflin Street Block Party, so downtown was insane. We had to wait quite some time before we were able to get into the Campus-State Street ramp. It was an enjoyable evening, though, if long. Sunday the weather had not improved, which put a damper on the wedding reception to which we were invited. We were able to get some shopping done, though, buying some baby things for which Maryanne had a hankering. If nothing else I'll no longer have to listen to her talk about how badly we need them (read, "how badly she wants them").
Today I have a flex day, so am home alone again with Sarah. Luckily she's been good enough for me to get a few more chores done.
So here it is, May already. May is my favorite month, which I remark about yearly, it seems. We're off to a rather inauspicious start, though, as it is overcast and cool. It's one of those damp, gray days that are better suited to April. Since I don't have the opportunity to get anything accomplished outside anyway, then I guess it doesn't matter if it's crummy outside or not.
