Every Memorial Day weekend my family plants geraniums at the cemetery. My Dad's been visiting the family plot in Shirley, Mass for over 70 years and I've been going along for years.
This weekend we went on Saturday after my appointments were over. I love old cemeteries but we didn't linger since we were planting the geraniums in the rain.
That leaves the rest of the weekend to kick back. I've actually taken both Sunday and Monday off - hurrah!
In reality a day off means I've got time to dig out the house. Straightening my office has taken the entire day - it's been a long time coming.
I've been entertained while I organized all day by the Drop Dead Diva marathon. I love TV marathons on holidays. Tomorrow is the Hoarders marathon.
And tomorrow - yes - we will barbecue. In fact, my parents bought a small Webber grill and a fire starter this afternoon for the occasion. We're a non-grilling family but we're going to give it a shot. I've been inspired by the delicious smells coming from my next-door neighbor's grill - time to cook up some burgers of my own!
Hope that you're enjoying the weekend - it's back to work on Tuesday!
