All I can say is “Thank goodness it’s Friday!” I found a few works of art that reflect how I spend my weekends.
Experiencing an opera
Going for a walk and collecting small mementos
Enjoying a cup of coffee and watching the world go by
Going to a restaurant for a bite to eat
Reading a good book
Going to the farmer’s market
Spending time with friends and family
Listening to music and having a glass of wine at the end of a successful work week
Until next time….
