Happy Friday! It was a long week with cold, miserable weather, but I think we may be over the hump. Right now, it’s Friday at 5:36 pm, and we just sat down for the first time today. We’ve been at it since 6:30 am.
Friday nights, we love to sit on our front porch and watch the world go by. In the summertime, on Friday nights, we watch all the campers & RVs driving by to check into Camping on the Battenkill or tourists who are staying up in Manchester.
Sunday nights, we sit on our front porch and watch them all go home. We really love living here, in a place where people want to vacation.
We haven’t been able to sit outside for at least two weeks since the weather decided to turn back to winter. Today I said that as long as the sun is out, I will bundle up and have happy hour on the porch.
I made some fresh guacamole to have with chips and salsa. I made tequila & key lime seltzer water for a cocktail with a squeeze of lime juice: nothing fancy, just an old stand-by.
I am freezing my ass off, but I don’t care. If I were up here for the weekend, the chilly temperature wouldn’t bother me, although I do have to hold down my chips and guacamole from blowing away. I just watched the third, fifth-wheel camper go by; we think the campground must have opened this week.
It’s going to be an early night with a 4:30 am wake-up call. Tomorrow is my first day “working” at the Troy Farmers Market, and we leave at 6 am. I’m excited to go, I’ve worked at it a couple of times over the last two years, and it’s fun. I know a lot of the vendors and can’t wait to see them.
I never sleep well on Friday nights for whatever reason; I know why; I am a total nervous Nelly or anal Annie the night before a market or event. I plan to get everything ready tonight, so I’m not running around like a grumpy idiot in the morning. It was one thing when I was going to my market alone on my own schedule, but I don’t want to slow everything down in the morning for Marty.
Have a great Saturday and I’ll catch up with you guys later! 😉
