Good weekend
I could really get used to 3-day weekends… There’s a good amount of time to get some things accomplished and still have down/relaxing time.
So I got some stuff done on Friday night & Saturday - got my blue dress mostly assembled on Saturday and did 1/2 the eyelets for it… the first few really suck but I got better as I went on…. About half way through it, I realized I should be using a different kind of thread, but didn’t want to rip the other ones out and start over, so I’ll deal with it. Again need to put sleeves on it and hem it, but that’s not *too* hard.
Did get to spend time with my mOnkey which was needed and enjoyed. Except now she has 2 dresses that are further along than mine… how does that happen?
The Honey got home around 9:30 Sunday morning and was majorly pooped after having worked all night and not slept much the night/day before. So we had some quality snuggle/cuddle time, then I went to Tara’s to help mOnkey a bit more with her pattern, then came home. Honey & I had dinner and watched Superman Returns - have I mentioned how much Kevin Spacey R-O-C-K-S?! Perfect for Lex! - which he managed to fall asleep about about 3/4 through. Again - he was pooped and I was happy to snuggle.
Yesterday we got up, had a leisurely breakfast and then walked down to poke around in the antique & second hand shops down the street. Didn’t find anything that we couldn’t live without, but got ideas for different things to do around the house. Now we just need the time to do them. Oh, and the evil design shows on HGTV… giving me new ways to look at stuff… *sigh* So many ideas so little time or money.
I did one small personal improvement thing this weekend - decided to try those tooth whitening strips… started them on Friday night and can’t believe the difference already! My teeth aren’t bad, just dingy and it’s bugged me. I’m excited that they actually work for me and that it’s only a 7 day thing.
Ok... off to find lunch now.
