The weekend was a blur
August 4, 2008Friday evening, hubby and I went out in search of cedar grilling planks. We didn’t find any to our satisfaction so Sunday, we were forced to grill our salmon in foil.
Saturday we had a coed baby shower to attend. We drove all the way out to the SWATS! The subdivision was nice enough (gated and all) but it was down the street from the hood. For some strange reason (like a weak grasp on reality), I thought the place where we attended the shower was someone’s guest house. The whole time I was gushing to hubby about how they had gone all out for a guest house so their real house but be something out of Home & Garden. Hubby kept trying to tell me that WAS their house but I wasn’t hearing it. I ended up asking the father-to-be afterwards and it was not a guest house. Multiple houses sharing one driveway really had me confused. LOL.
Saturday night, our neighbors two doors down invited us over to ‘party like a BaRackStar’. It seemed a bit cultish to me (I’ve never heard of people being on fire for anyone but the Lord…) but we had a good time. Plus, our neighbors can BURN in the kitchen. We ate well and after their repeated insistence, we took home a big plate. They’re a bit older than us but cool people nonetheless.
We skipped church on Sunday and did all the things we would have done on Saturday if we’d been home. The storm last week (?) damaged our gazebo and patio so hubby was working on that. He finally restored the power out there too. Thank goodness because it’s much too hot to sit out there without the fan.
This week will be busy. Hubby’s basketball team has their playoffs this week. (Last week they won second place in their division!) Hubby’s parents are coming to town too. Not to mention, my to do list is quite long. I’ve promised myself that I will NOT sleep in on Friday and I will run all the errands that I need to so that I can relax on Saturday. I actually want to check out the hiking trail at Kennesaw Mtn one weekend (shout out to Fergie). How’s YOUR week looking?
