...and another weekend comes to a close. I can say that today since Mondays are a part of a hairdresser's weekend. I have to catch myself from asking Tuesday clients how their weekend was. They look at me a little strange.

Em and I went to a friend's house for dinner on Saturday. I love being with them, and we all hang out as a group. My ex used to work with Cathi's husband, and we had our first kids together. Well, my only. When I got home, I read. I think I'll switch to a new paragraph for that.

I finished the last part of The Green Mile today. Whoa...what a great book. I'm so glad I had all six parts and didn't have to wait for each segment to be published. Great book, Stephen King. I'm going to look for the movie. My sister said she's watched it at least 5 times.

I really didn't do any work this weekend, or today. I woke up this morning not knowing how to fill my day. My mother's aide and cleaning lady were coming, so that was out. I was out of coffee, and tried to decide if I should just go to Dunkin Donuts up the street, or drive to Panera's. I decided to go to the Panera's by Annapolis Mall so I could shop at Marshall's afterwards. Then I thought that maybe today would be the day I'd buy an iPhone, because I've been toying with the idea for a while. I put the cash for that in my front pocket in case I decided to buy it. I remember thinking that it was uncomfortable having it there when I got into my car, but that it was a safe place. I think I pulled it up a little in the pocket. Then I decided the shoes I had on weren't comfortable, plus I forgot to take my meds, so I ran in the house to take care of that. I got back in my car and drove to Panera's, set up my laptop, and got in line. I felt in my pocket, and, no money. Panic. I searched through my purse. I was almost to the front of the line, so I ordered and paid for my coffee, then ran out to my car while they fixed it. No money. Not under the car. Not in the parking lot. Not by my table. I got my coffee, then went out to the car again. Nothing. I just hoped the money was at home, but it put a damper on my day. I was able to read posts at Panera's, but I couldn't comment. I kept getting the 'google server not found' message. (BTW, did you read Pioneer Woman's potato recipe today? Yum!) I wasn't having much fun at my coffee shop, so I didn't stick around too long. I think I went through my uncluttered purse at least 10 times while I was there. I went to a few shops, then headed home. I've searched everywhere for that folded-up wad of money, to no avail. I called Panera's on the off chance, but no luck. I can't help but think it's somewhere, but I can't imagine where else it could be. I'm sick about it, but just have to let it go.

Anyhow, I got a few hours in on the hammock, reading. So, so nice. Our time of humidity-free days are limited. I feel so fortunate I've been off of work on so many of the great ones.

Well, time to put this day to rest. Maybe tomorrow will be a lucky one for me.
