Weekends are never long enough, are they?
My brother's wedding was really lovely. My son was very handsome in his white shirt and dress pants. I even managed a few pictures of him. The drive up north was winding, but gorgeous. The coast in this part of California is rugged. The wedding was at a house with a back yard (where the ceremony was) that looked directly over the ocean.
There was a beach within sight of the house full of Sea Lions. Their barking was a constant background noise. Later, I grabbed a pair of binocs and got a closer look at them. Got home about five, made dinner and then everyone went to bed early, including me. My brother will probably be mad if he reads this (I don't think he does, most of the family pays very little attention to my writing) but this time he married the right woman. They're wonderful together.
Here's a picture of the Darling Child in Full Pout Mode. He didn't want to leave and the chair was comfy, too. Those are not the dressy clothes, by the way.
Turns out my son's Saturday soccer game that he was supposed to miss because of the wedding got canceled. Today's game went very well. They won 4-0 and looked like a much different team than before. Then we went to Art In The Park where Balou, the ceramacist/potter gave my son a gorgeous pottery mask. He's getting quite a collection of her work. She was telling everyone that he's her oldest customer. We've been seeing her every year now for 6 years. It's really wonderful for him. We had a great time. Then home, and then I had to go shopping.
My dog fell in the pond. One part of it is so covered with duckweed I think he thought it was solid. Fortunately, I was there to pull him out. I'm not sure he could have gotten out on his own. He's quite traumatized over it. Me too, actually.
At last, though, I got to work on Scandal. I finished re-ordering the chapters and wrote a new one. But I'm still behind. Now I have to go to bed.
Last night I finished Lisa Gardner's Survivor's Club. It was really good.

Your comment about your brother's wedding made me think of a book I finished two days ago, "The Monk Upstairs" by Tim Farrington, because it starts with a wedding near the northern California coast and ends with a funeral on the beach. VG book, as was the prequel, "The Monk Downstairs". (And your DC is quite handsome even with the pout, although I'm sure you knew that.)
I'm always looking for good books to read. The titles sound intriguing. And yes, the DC is quite handsome, pouting or not. Thanks!
