Weekend...
So, how was everyone's weekend?
I think I was ready to pass out...
Fri-I was horrible company, so it's a good thing DH and SS went fishing...
Sat-worked FOREVER and was on my feet... I came home to a 'text granted' glass of vino and he even had some cheese/crackers out for me!
Sun-did errands, bookstore, hair trim, worked on refinishing one of the chairs (PIA-why didn't I just buy new?!), and DH and I went for a jog/walk at the park... Caught up on LOST w/out falling asleep (Kristy-forgot to look at the bedding!), and that's about it!
Re: Weekend...
Friday - Went the Morgan Library, saw Catherine of Cleve's Book of Hours (seriously awesome, I'm going back to see it again), and then had Indian food with two friends I hadn't seen in a long time. Food was delish.
Saturday - Early bus to Philly and then we went to the Philadelphia Brewing Company. We accidentally stole beer from the Clean Up Philly people (we offered to pay after realizing our error but they said it was cool) and then went on a tour. Their beer is SO GOOD and I am SO MAD I can't get it in NYC. I'm kicking myself we didn't buy a case. It would've been heavy on the bus but whatever. We got some pint glasses and then hung out with a friend and her bf in South Philly.
Sunday - Woke up at ten, got brunch, sat around Rittenhouse square and looked at dogs, ate sorbet and gelato from Capogiro, hopped the bus home after fulitlely looking for a place to buy a six pack, and had dinner in Chinatown (noodles!) before taking the subway home.
If you saw a black lab dragging a girl near Rittenhouse-it was prob my sis!
Too funny-you stole beer...
My weekend was good.
Friday: Dh and I ran some errands and then prepared for a coffee tasting we were hosting on Saturday. Once we finished working, we played some video games and watched tv.
Sat: We had out coffee tasting from 11:00 - 1:00. It went great and our coffee had great reviews & it beat out our competitors coffee that was brewed. Afterward, we went out to lunch with a bunch of friends. Then dh went out with the guys, so I went and got my hair colored (long over due) and hungout with some girl friends the rest of the night. We went ot Red Lobster which was awesome bc I haven't been there in forever!
Sun: We had our weekly faimly dinner. It was taco day bc dh didn't feel much like cooking. It was lots of fun! whike we ate, we watched Star Wars: New Hope. Once everyone left, DH and I played some games and watched tv.
Friday- geez, I don't even remember what happened. I guess we just relaxed at home.
Saturday- went to a 1st birthday party for a friend's child...it was cute. Then stopped at my parents.
Sunday- grocery shopping and relaxed on the couch. I watched a lot of House Hunters and Cosby Show lol.
Fri - DH played poker so I went to the scrapbook store. I bought some things to make a baby book for my neighbor who is expecting their first baby in August.
Sat - In the morning we did yard work and in the evening we went to the drive-in movies. We saw Date Night and Cop Out...well I saw Date Night and slept through Cop Out. It was a little chilly but we had fun.
Sun - housework and laundry in the morning, made a late lunch for DH, MIL and I of roasted chicken, salad and smashed new potatoes. DH tried to teach me to play his video game. After running into walls and shooting myself I gave up and watch tv while he played his game
Th: (since that is really when my weekends start these days) went and saw Michael Buble. Love him. He was the soundtrack for a good portion of our wedding, and we saw him when we were first dating too. Not a good idea this preggers though, I was miserable. I figured it was a sit down concert I'd be fine. I didn't factor in all the walking around downtown, and the fact that I'd have to SIT in a little seat for hours without moving. My feet were so swollen they started tingling and going numb.
Fri: Exhausted from week, didn't get off the couch. Wait, I take that back, I got in the car to go to the grocery store, decided that was too much work, so I just drove back home. Friday night: Couch
Sat: BBQ festival/contest thing. Another non good idea (at some point I am going to remember that I get tired easily). High 80's in a dirt field with a bunch of BBQs going making it that much hotter. Food was good, but you can only eat so much pork at one time. Sat night: Couch
Sunday: Got a little bit of energy and cleaned. went grocery shopping (no longer and option at that point). Sunday night: DH BBQed some steaks and I layed on the couch. He wanted to go to a Suns game with his brother, but since it was opening week, I literally had only seen him on Thursday night all of last week (including the weekend), so he sat on the couch with me instead. What a guy!
Our weekend was good but went by too fast.
Friday - my allergies were kicking my butt so just hung on the couch with DH, my son and the doggies.
Sat- was feeling a little better so we went to the mall and all got new shoes and some summer clothes. Went to a carnival and then out to dinner.
Sunday - Grocery shopped, washed the cars, went for a bike ride with my son and then grilled on the deck.
Fri- After I got off work DH and almost got my car running, the starter was bad.
Sat- I worked and DH got my car running. DH went and signed all the paper work to sell our house. So we're officially homeless..lol. Not sure how long we have to move but the realtor is going to call us this week to tell us. When I got off work we went to look at a house(Cute, nice land, but way to small.) Then we went to DH's dads.
Sun- We went to church and then to Home Depot to get some flooring to finish DH's bathroom(part of the deal on selling our house). Then back to church, then we went out to eat with BIL.
Fri - visited our friend's in the hospital and their brand new baby boy! So adorable - and a head full of hair!
Sat - attempted and failed at making breakfast. Well, it mostly turned out good but stupid PMS had me crying about it. Hormonal...cleaned, and had some friends over for dinner whom we haven't seen since October b/c they got transferred to California. Had fun playing with their little one, Lukas, who is 3. Watched Boondock Saints II.
Sun - church, breakfast, Target, then couch with heating pad b/c AF arrived (which is very good, but still painful). Red Lobster for 'lenner' for FIL belated birthday dinner. Home on the couch with the heating pad.
