This week in the life of Liz.

by Liz Anderson on Sunday, 1 July 2007 at 21:40 ·

I have recently discovered that I have stopped talking to almost everyone. This is generally not a good sign. As a result, in an attempt to drag myself out of this stupor of futility I appear to be living in. I have decided to do a few things. First I have decided to send an e-mail to one "long lost friend" each week. Second, if that person responds I will reply. Third I have also decided to post random happenings from my week. And finally, in the event that my friends that I haven't spoken to in a long time no longer want to talk to me, I am going to also talk to one random stranger a week.

So, on to my week..

In the past week I went to Alex to spend some time at the lake. Jess and Betsy went with me and as a result got smothered with love from my family and also got a piece of birthday cake as it was my sister's birthday party. (She turned 30.) Monday I was up late chatting with random individuals (see point four above) and was invited out on a date. So Tuesday I went on a date. I had super hot hair that day by the way... The guy was interesting but... perhaps not what I am looking for. Wednesday I had the day off. I grilled that evening. I had BBQ chicken but also made brats and marinated pork chops for guests. The rest of the workweek was fairly uneventful. I tried to make a cake on Saturday because I wanted angel food cake. However, the work tried is extremely important in the previous sentence, as while I did end up with a cake, it was an extremely black cake. Apparently cake should not bake for and hour and a half while you eat supper and then run to Target and out for ice cream... And finally today, I went to church, then out for bagels and this afternoon I took my niece to Thunder Road. It was fun.

So that covered a bit more than a week (nine days) but I felt my trip to the lake was worth it.

Highlights for the coming week include but are not limited to: a trip down the Ottertail and grocery shopping for cheap cherries. Stay tuned!
