An update
I had a great weekend overall. Friday night we went to a Wii party at our friend's house. And Buz got me my very own Wii Friday night too! I love that man!
Saturday started out a little weird on our ride with our friends. There was an awkwardness in the air that I couldn't quite pinpoint the reason for. It was female intuition I think because Annie felt it too although maybe I was just picking it up from her since I didn't feel weird until we were around them. Don't know what was up with that. It was a relatively short ride too - over to Middleburg for lunch, to Bluemont for ice cream, then home; not the normal fun - and had to give up on Mt. Weather due to...the weather. We rode into a thunderstorm on the mountain. Irony anyone?
We went home with all good intentions to be productive and get some stuff done around the house. B was going to work on the garage and his car (I got him car parts for his birthday - hey, it's what he wanted). I was going to do some laundry and some much needed cleaning of the bathrooms and living room, etc. Somewhere in between finishing the master bath and going to clean the living room, I got distracted with B setting up my new Wii and my lovely massage chair beckoning me to sit. Once I'm in my massage chair there's no hope of anything else getting done. So we played with the Wii and relaxed for the rest of the day; much needed relaxation too. Poor B needs a vacation - he's getting slammed at work.
Sunday - we played hooky from church. Decided to ride our bikes to local cafe for brunch. Got caught in a sudden rain shower on the way home. It was nice to get out on the bikes though. Decided we'd try again on the good intentions of being productive. Failed miserablely. The massage chair and Wii beckoned. Played with the Wii for the rest of the day. Very fun - I like the bowling. Finally, I can get B to bowl with me! :-)
I'm so sore today though. I think it was the baseball that did me in with the twisting motion. Makes me realize just how out of shape I am in. Now that I have my Wii I'm hoping to get the Wii Fit so I can get back into yoga. Who would have thought that playing video games was good for you? My kind of exercise!
I have too many deadlines this week. Did I mention I finally got my clearance on July 9? YAY! But that means now I'm gonna have to actually do work instead of pretend to like I have been for the past 5 months and have to go to Belvoir now. Ugh. Missing my County benefits and perks.
Speaking of County, I had lunch with a former coworker last Friday and visited everyone. It's strange being back there and not being a part of it. I miss some aspects of it and some of the people. But also glad I'm gone. Too much drama still.
My parents' birthdays are next week. I'm thinking of getting them a Wii so that they can do the bowling. They love bowling but can't anymore since they're getting older and have health issues preventing them now. Any other bright birthday ideas for them? Anyone? Anyone?
Have I mentioned that I'm really sore today? OW.
It's Monday folks. Make the best of it.
