FRIDAY EVENINGS

Throughout our lives Friday evenings has brought an anticipation of joy and revelry while introducing a short but well deserved two day respite from five days of drudgery. It seemed that People even acted happier on Fridays .

Often, Fridays would serve as a gauge for how the rest of the weekend would turn out. We would have such a great time Friday night it seemed to pour over into Saturday. On the other hand, sometimes you blew your wad and the rest of the weekend would be a complete bore.

Irrespective of how Fridays went, however, we'd always hit Monday morning thinking about the next Friday and the fun we were going to have.

At Rancho Fridays don't work the same way. Fridays bring to a close all activity involving your therapists. So for two excrutiating days there's nothing to do but ride around in the wheelchair. What makes matters worse is everyone's parting salutation, "have a great weekend !" What a joke.
