It’s Friday!

Welcome back! Coffee's always on around here. Pull up your favorite chair and a grab a cup. Enjoy your visit today! And don't forget to stop back by again soon.

Thank. God. It’s. Friday.

I’m so excited it’s Friday! I always like Fridays as it means the weekend is arriving and my husband will be home. It means he gets to spend time with the kids. During the summer, it also means no worries about kids getting up late for school and it doesn’t matter so much if they can’t find a their shoes or whatever. Of course, it also means *I* don’t have to get up so freakin’ early.

But this weekend is extra cool because my mom and I are going to the Smooth Jazz Festival in Woodinville at Chateau Ste Michelle Winery. My mom usually goes every year and usually her friend goes with her but this year, he can’t make it so she invited me. A day without kids! I am so excited! (I’m sure you totally couldn’t tell, right?)

We are going to see Marion Meadows, Waymon Tisdale, Nils and the Crusaders. I don’t especially like the Crusaders, but everyone else is pretty cool. The lineup for Sunday includes some equally cool musicians like Chris Botti, Boney James, Blake Aaron and Janita. Unfortunately, we’re only going to Saturday’s show which kinda sucks because I really like Chris Botti. Wish we could go to both.

You can bet that I will be posting all about the festival, probably sometime Sunday. I plan to take my camera as well so hopefully I’ll actually remember to use it and take some pictures! Although it’s not supposed to be extremely warm, it should be pleasant weather and with any luck we’ll get some good shots as we’re supposed to be in the VIP seating area. Not sure exactly what that means, but I’m sure it means something really cool. Like maybe front row or something.

Seafair Weekend

I also wanted to share with anyone who happens to be local to the Seattle area, that this weekend is Seafair and I’ve written a listing of Seafair activities going on around the sound over at Beyond Real Estate. Please feel free to check it out. If you know of anything I missed, please do post something about it in the comments there.

Wherever you are and whatever you’re doing this weekend, I hope you have a great weekend! I wish you lots of fun times and safe adventures!

In the arena,

PS – Anyone having a big time delay between when they publish a post and when it shows up in the RSS? Usually it’s pretty fast – I can publish a post here and it’ll post to the RSS feed within just minutes. But lately, unless I schedule the post ahead of time, it takes 2-3 hours before it shows up in the feed. I’d appreciate any clues anyone might have. Thanks!

PPS – I can’t get the formatting on the post to allow the picture to be aligned left with the text wrapping around it. If anyone knows a fix for that, I’d appreciate any tips on that too. Thanks again!

Make $10k in a weekend – “Too good to be true.” That’s the first thing I said when
I heard of http://tinyurl.com/5lq2g4. You can’t REALLY make $10K in a weekend. But I quickly bit my tongue once I saw the content. . .
