Tell me about your weekend
You guys are halfway through your Monday and I'm almost at the end of mine. One day closer to the weekend! 
In the meantime, tell me about this past weekend. Do anything fun?
I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball
Re: Tell me about your weekend
Saturday we met up with a friend for dim sum then hung out with my family for the rest of the day, which was nice.
Yesterday DH and I did some yard work (mostly raking leaves and other Fall cleanup) and later that night went to volleyball. I'm sore today and have two more nights of volleyball in a row to go....
I had a four day weekend and it still flew by for me!
Thurs-did a deep clean of the house so when TG comes around, I only need to do light cleaning. Picked up bibs for race that was on Saturday
Fri-DH and I both had eye dr appts. Spent the afternoon grocery shopping and making my Thanksgiving spreadsheet. Friday night my sister, niece and dad came over for dinner
Sat-ran 5K in SF (my sister's first). It was nice to run with someone who was my speed.
. Saturday afternoon spent catching up on TV and did laundry and cooked some meals for the weekend. Sat night-went out to sushi with friends
Sun-cleaned & organized the basement and watched the niner game. Then vegged for the rest of the afternoon/evening.
Friday I padded around the house until 11 and then met a friend for lunch and to get our nails done. I then went to costco before picking Q up from daycare.
Saturday DH took Q out for breakfast and to the park. So, I slept until 11! Then Q and I went out for dinner with a friend and her daughter while our husbands were at the Stanford game.
Sunday I cored, sliced and peeled a ton of apples and then made apple pie filling which I preserved. I'm currently cooking down my apple butter and will be preserving that as well. Last night we went to a burger place in Downtown Los gatos that we had a groupon for which was expiring soon. It was a little disappointing but I'm just glad we didn' pay full price.
We saw Totem (Cirque du Soleil) on Saturday evening and it was pretty good. I liked Ovo better though.
After that, dh bought the Pacquiao fight and had about 15 people over.
Sunday we went to Walnut Creek for lunch and drove by some houses for sale. Then I came home and ran 3 miles. THEN we did dinner and Dexter with our neighbor.
We finally got our dining room table. It'll be delivered tomorrow.
I did some planning for Thanksgiving and found out my family won't be coming. My grandpa doesn't think he can sit that long so my mom is doing dinner at her place with him and my bros. So it will just be DH's family here, which will make it less cramped. Other than that we just chilled out since it rained Fri-Sat. I added to my iPod and did some writing. Oh and I made some cinnamon-pecan pancakes.

Saturday was really busy. I met a friend at the Ferry Building, we ate a ton, bought some fancy chocolate and talked a bunch. It was nice. In the afternoon, we drove up to Davis to visit my brother in law and his girlfriend. Stayed for dinner, some other friends came over, and we played a couple of rounds of very competitive Trivial Pursuit
Sunday was a quiet day. DH had to work and he took the dog with him -- super empty house! I got a bunch of cleaning, laundry and cooking done.
