My Weekend In A Nutshell!!!

We fly home every Friday afternoon. I bring the same bags back with me, and it is pretty much routine...until. Until we actually reach our house, then the fun begins. We rush in and make sure that Lilly is settled before we take off again. This Friday found us at El Cerro Grande feasting on a great cuisine of Mexican food, and then over to Costco's to stock up for the weekend. It proved to be a great trip...lots of fresh fruits. We came home and made Waldorf and 7 layer salad along with the shrimp salad we bought at Costco's. Saturday found us out just a bit before we headed over to Preston and Connie's for the new quartet to practice. They were awesome. The Casteen's were so gracious and just welcomed everyone into their home. Sunday the quartet, that just practiced for the first time the night before, found themselves featured as the special music. They did a fantastic job. After church, Mark and I found ourselves at Barnes & Noble bookstore...not good. We are book lovers. Soon we both had an armful of books and DVD's. I was just in pure heaven. After a browsing time there, we headed to the Longhorn for lunch. I had their Citrus Glazed Chicken with fresh asparagus. Mark did the chicken tenders along with fries. We picked up a piece of Key Lime Pie to take home along with most of our lunch. They really give you large portions so we had plenty left. Then it was over to Belk's to buy some shorts. Guess what?? In the middle of July they don't have any shorts in stock. A reminder to myself...buy shorts in February next year. Then it was off to home where I knew my bed was calling my name. Sometimes a nap makes me feel worse, which was the case on Sunday. Monday found us getting Mark's blood checked, it was too thin. After a quick lunch at K & W, we were back at Costco's. We bought a new air conditioner for our kitchen. Oh the many woes of window units. The new one will be put in this coming Monday. Lots of laundry to do and some cleaning finally got done. We went to Wendy's and picked up some dinner for us and mom and dad. Went over there to eat with them. Tuesday is always a mad house trying to get everything ready to hit the road. We finally got things together and got gone. Well, that is my weekend in a nut shell.

In A Nut Shell!!!

This week has been busy to say the least, but who's life isn't busy now days. I don't have kids to cart around and care for, but I have more than enough on my plate. I get over whelmed at times, if I really sit down and think about all the things that I need or intend to do (I have lots of things I intend to do). I sometimes put more pressure on myself...I am my own worst enemy at times. There never seems to be enough time in the day. I haven't been on Facebook much at all. I miss the connection with my friends. I just text my status once in a while without being on the site. My mom has played all my games for me. I know I have things to do, and I can't imagine how people get anything done sitting on there all day long. I am not talking about retired or disabled people...I am talking about working people with kids. Oh well, not my concern...I just wonder about it.

Ebay has kept me hopping this week, which is good things. Lots of orders equal money. I have plans for my Ebay seed money this year....remodeling our house. As a matter of fact, the builder called today to say that he will met with us next Friday to give us a quote on the work we want to have done. I can hardly wait...this has been such a slow process. Every time you do one thing, there is another thing that is wrong...a never ending process.

I have found myself at the PO every day this week. I am sure the postal workers just love me!! I know they do...I bake them cookies. They have been wonderful this week.

All library books read and returned. Didn't check out anymore right now. Ebay will take up too much of my time right now. I get up extra early to bag seeds and I try to pack up orders at night. I still have orders to pack in the morning, as my night owl customers pay in the middle of the night.

I did get my donation of seeds off to Jeanie this week. I can't wait to see pictures of her garden. What a great thing she is doing in her community. I also sent off my Easter cards this week. I made all my baskets except one, but I won't see her until the 28th, so I have a little time.

House cleaning is a never ending chore. I mostly had laundry to do this week, but when I finish this blog I am going to go dust and clean bathrooms. Love to dust, but would love to have bathroom fairy. LOL As you can see not that much happening other than Ebay this week, so this has been my week in a nut shell.

Boring!!!

Well, if you have been reading my blog, then you know that I have a pretty boring life. Nothing too grand happened today. We went to church, and we only have 2 Sundays left at Bethlehem. Been trying to get all my stuff together to go to Moore County. I need to take lots more clothes and shoes. We went to eat Mexican today after church. We went to the one in Wallace beside the new Walmart. It is so delicious. I have still not been feeling like my old self, so I tire easily after just going out for a few minutes. We came home and I just crashed. I slept all afternoon. After a quick supper, we have been watching Hunter. I loved that show. We bought the first season on DVD. I love cop and detective shows. I would love to have Matlock, but those are around $40 a season. Too high for me. Well, enough rambling for now. Maybe things will be more exciting this week.
