A Full Weekend

Tomorrow I pick up a friend and head to another friend's for luncheon. The purpose of the luncheon is to present our friend, A., who is visiting from NC, the quilt we made for her. It was made as a going away present since she left our small quilting group when she moved out of state. It's taken 2 years to finish and looks fabulous. I know that she'll love it. It'll be nice to see our long lost friend again and to catch up on her new life's activities. That evening, after dinner, we return to the "scene of the crime" so to speak, to play Pinochle. A. will be gone and our monthly group will get together to play. There will be 6 of us, instead of the usual 5 because we've added the sister of one of the men in our group. We'll play with a partner instead of playing by ourselves. Sometimes this works out better, sometimes not. We haven't played in a couple of months because of a new birth in one couple's family. They were needed out of state. (Why do families spread out so far away?) I'm looking forward to a pleasant evening. It will be nice to be out visiting after being stuck inside for over a week with a cold.
