Nothing Doing...

or Doing Nothing....

It's a kid-free day. My boys are with DH which means a Saturday without cricket. Without Uno. Without laughter and squabbles.

It's a hollow day.

But not a sad one.

My parents and I are going to the Sydney Theatre Company this afternoon to see "The Pig Iron People". Should be good.

And then tonight is a Bollywood-themed girls-night-in with my friend J and some of her friends. J shares my birthday tomorrow, so we're going to quietly celebrate early this year.

"Nothing Doing" could also be about my birthday. For the last couple of years I've held a party at the pub across the road, but I'm just not up for it this year. Next year I'll double my efforts and share the joy. Promise. This year just doesn't feel like much of a celebration. Especially without "her". Her birthday is the week after mine, and it feels wrong to do any celebrating while she's still so ill.

*sigh*

So, this is another NaBloPoMo post. A post for the sake of a post.

Sorry 'bout that.
