Anticipation

Last week, the Texas Tech football game was on Friday night. So, I enjoyed watching the game. But I was resting my sprained ankle, and was anticipating laying low, mostly reading, watching TV, and playing on the computer. It was a three day weekend. I found that I was at loose ends, because I did not have something else, more exciting or active, to anticipate that weekend.

Well, this weekend was not so bad: There was NASCAR, Texas Tech Football, and Red Sox at Yankee baseball.  But there was nothing to look forward to on Sunday night.  I am not hooked into the PBS Sunday night series "Silk"

But, I have realized that if I do not have something to anticipate for Sunday night, I am at loose ends on a weekend.  It is not like I have nothing to do:  I can work in the yard, I can read, I can do things on the computer, I can knit.  Tonight I really enjoyed a telephone conversation with a really good friend.  I think maybe I can plan better to give my Sundays something to anticipate.
