How Average Jane Intends To Spend Her Memorial Day Weekend

Written by

I have a lot of plans for this weekend, which will either be three or four days long depending on my workload. Here's some of what I have in mind:

Renting and subsequently using a wallpaper steamer to start undoing the egregious decorating faux pas I committed on my bedroom walls in 1995.

Playing Dune at the home of friends who are moving away soon.

Taking care of adoptable kittehs (twice).

Accompanying my husband to the cemetery at Ft. Leavenworth to put flowers on his mother's grave.

Yoga on the lawn at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art.

And finally, a deep-tissue massage.

That should keep me pretty busy and still allow for reading, naps, playing with my cats, going on walks, cooking, gardening, etc. Of course, that assumes that I'll be out and about rather than hunkering down in various basements trying to stay safe from tornadoes.

What do you have planned?

I was thinking of you when the weatherman mentioned Kansas City when talking about the linr of tornadoes. I’m glad you were spared from them, and that you will continue to be in the future.
Regarding the wallpaper, try to find this product at your local hardware store — it will save you a considerable amount of work with the steamer.

Your weekend plans sound glorious! Mine weekend will be a little boring comparatively. I have work all weekend!
Hope you enjoy everything! (Especially the yoga, please enjoy it extra special for me.)

Wow, you have a lot going on. My weekend will be very boring by comparison….running some errands and hanging out with a couple of my kids on Monday. Oh the days when my agenda was fast and furious; but I kind of like the slower pace these days. Have fun and good luck with your wallpaper project. ~Joy
