en Weekend

I'm currently working out my plans for the weekend.  Not that it really feels like the weekend as I have been on leave since late November 2013.  I need to keep myself busy now that I am beginning to feel a little bit better; it's important to do so so that I don't slip in to down mode and start thinking about the loss of my son, my job, homesickness, money...   This can happen so easily and tends to creep up on me, so I'm trying to stay awake to the signs and symptoms.

Thankfully the 6 Nations rugby is kicking off tomorrow so I shall be ensconced in front of the TV and driving any other would-be TV watchers to use other screens.  There is also a market tomorrow morning in Josselin  which is well worth a visit, however the weather is absolute shite at the moment which doesn't make for market going pleasure.

On Sunday I've decided to check out a local Brocante in search of some bargains for our still being renovated house.  I'm keen to find some interesting plant pots too and anything else for the garden that I can find.  I used to love gardening (it's in my veins) but haven't planted our vegetable garden, or looked after the flower garden, since my son died.  One of the last Father and Son activities that I did with him was plant some chives.  They are still planted in the same spot and will remain there until my dying day hopefully.  Conclusion = 2014 --> House and Garden.

That's it.  We'll see what else comes up.  What are you up to for the weekend?
