I'm kind of glad I didn't remember that I forgot the milk while I was at Michelle's house or I would have felt bad about that (and perhaps a bit senile). She must have been wondering if I'd left it in the car or something, sheesh.
Since Michelle was battling a cold this week, we didn't do anything creative but had good conversation while we had lunch instead. Eva was the only one who did anything creative by making this triptych of various herds of dinosaurs.
I returned a couple of her books and brought her a couple of my books to help her while she's in bed recovering from being sick. I mean really, isn't reading in bed the only consolation to being sick? I think so. She sent me home with 3 books to borrow as well.
Eva invited me into her room to see the artwork hanging on her walls, and then brought out a bountiful portfolio from her closet and proceeded to show me everything in it...one by one. About half way through she said, "I think there's only 15 left." But that wasn't the case. She ended up getting distracted by her bizarre dinosaurs book (of which she had many tracings) and spent a fair amount of time trying to scare me with it. We ended up making a game out of it and tickling each other (though I'm really not ticklish) for quite awhile. Good times.

We've had THAT KIND of saturday too- and I think I love it.
Again, I say this all the time, the friendship between you two is inspiring.
Sometimes, on Creative thursday - I just sit & talk, it's so rejuvinating!
I hope michelle is feeling better soon.
YES- I forget stuff all the time & I think I'm going mad on a regular basis!
obviously-
What a bummer that Michelle is sick! I'm glad you still had creative Friday, even if it was without the creative part.
Forgetting things is all too common these days and yes- it drives me crazy!
Nice job playing with Eva!
Thanks for the delivery and the company! I'm thrilled to have something to read.
Don't worry about the milk. As you know, I do forget things and then feel crazy.
I sure wish there was a Cafe Rio in my town. Never been to one, but if I went, that salad would be mine!
I did a couple of creative things this week, very quick things. I've been driving myself crazy by forgetting things for years, so lists are my friends (when I think about making them).
Oh! My friend Kristine is a Good Mail Post winner. Yeah Kristine!
Yay that I am a winner! That's funny about the milk. I've been forgetting my purse and/or wallet lately--NOT cool when I spend a long time shopping then get to the check-out and have no money. How did you like Little Bee?
Forgetting things does drive me crazy, and ever since I read Still Alice I've questioned if I have a medical condition every time I have a moment like that.
That sounds like an awesome way to spend a mellow day. My youngest daughter also spends her day doing weird things while roaring at me. lol
What is it with milk being that thing people always forget? Bread, too! I think I need to find out if we have Cafe Rio up here. Your pictures make me hungry.
I need to send you my new address. Don't send anything to Tacoma! I'm so glad to have moved.
I can totally relate to the milk incident. I hate the feeling of realizing something like that way later in the evening.
I love how sweet you are to Eva. It means so much to me when my friends give attention to my children. I don't do that enough for other people's kids but I should because I love it when people do that for my kids.
I'm laughing at your "Ginko Baloba Moment" label! I have those moments frequently and feel reassured to be in such good company.
Poor Michelle! You are such a good friend. That's a cute photo with you and Eva.
At least you didn't forget the milk in the car, and then find it totally ruined.
One time I found a very rotten cantaloupe under my passenger seat after a week or two of driving around with a very sweet smelling car. I was sad on so many levels. Wasted money, wasted, delicious fruit, and the fact that I could not, for the life of me remember buying the darn thing in the first place. The possibility of someone sneaking a cantaloupe into my car seemed slim, so I had to accept that I was losing my mind.
