This has been a big weekend for me. I scheduled a November trip for Emily and I to go visit our metamour, my new laptop finally arrived, I finished the yoke portion of my sweater, and picked up 3000 lbs of firewood.
More and more, this house is beginning to look like a homestead with a woodpile and two large-ish garden plots.
What have y'all been up to this past week?

Your sweater looks amazing! Great work! It also looks incredibly cozy. I'm really happy to hear all about the good news from your neck of the woods.
I took a five-day long weekend this weekend, starting on Thursday. Today's my last day off. I had the opportunity to see family and friends, which was lovely, but it also meant that this introvert didn't quite get as much time to recharge and rejuvenate as he had hoped. The vibe of these five days has been nice, but much different than I expected, and I'm trying to figure out what I can do with the rest of today that will help me feel a fraction of that rejuvenation before I dive back in to work tomorrow.

The other week I and a couple of friends all quarantined before having an in person hangout at one of the friend's beach cabins. I had a lot of anticipation going into it to finally see people again, but still hadn't appreciated just how much I needed to see and hug everyone. Also as someone who doesn't own a car, it has been a ride just figuring out how to safely transport myself to anything beyond what I can bike and walk to.
Beside that and this weekend becoming a member at one of our gardens so that I can visit whenever, it's been wonderful to feel a little bit... I suppose intentionality to these trips when everything else keeps feeling like it's not in my control, being able to go on these trips, to plan them, execute them, and then have things work has been really really nice.
Being out 1 week and everyone still not having symptoms doesn't hurt either : )

I couldn't imagine living through the pandemic without a car, I was a big public transit user, but got a car after I tore my ACL and needed easier transportation. The idea of dealing with the stress of busses *on top of* pandemic era shopping sounds awful.
