Yesterday evening I met some friends in the main plaza of our town for an "apericena" which means drinks and snacks.  We met at a bar that offers a buffet of cheeses and salami, salads and breads.  It's sort of like happy hour but at 7pm.  We caught up on summer vacations, drank a couple of bottles of wine, and then headed home by 10.  There were 5 of us, three of whom don't work.  They were making plans to meet for tennis or a walk one day or another, lunch here, shopping there.  My friend Catherine, who teaches French at the school, and I just sighed.  Someday......  I finally got my compute at school today but the Headmaster bailed on our meeting this morning.  I think he's avoiding me.

Tomorrow is Saturday and we're going walking in the mountains with our German friends.  The girls, Grace and their daughter, prefer to stay home and probably on-line all day.  Sunday is the PTA's welcome back brunch at the school.  I really need a day at home to clean and garden and organize.  Argh.  xxoo me
