A few highlights from the weekend!

Thursday 

  • A walk with Steven.
  • Receiving a package from a friend in St. Lucia. She sent me some painted rocks and a card and magnet from local artists!
  • Taking a hot bath.
  • Leftover Chinese food for dinner.
  • Finishing knitting the baby blanket, and weaving in the ends.

Friday

  • Friday off, and pay day!
  • Getting my run in and having the sun be out. It was 29°, so the sun really helped warm me up.
  • Seeing Lorena for my mani/pedi and getting a fun new design and catching up with her. Although, I kept yawning despite getting a decent night’s rest.
  • Watching Marry MeThe Popcast kept saying it was horrible so I thought it was going to be, but it was really cute. Nothing spectacular, but cute (and funny)!
  • Painting rocks while watching the movie.
  • Dinner at El Famous.
  • Painting and watching the movie again (with Steven) when we got home.

Saturday

  • Finishing a book, then buying the next two in the series. The books are 1996, 1997, and 1998. They’re about an Australian food blogger who is sent a supplement from one of her sponsors that allows her to go back in time to her teenage self during those years. They’re simple, quick reads, and after finishing 1996 I needed to know what happened next!
  • Breakfast sandwiches by Steven.
  • Steven successfully buying a trailer. Yay! It will be so much easier to get sheet goods and lumber home now! He installed a wiring harness on my car last week so the brake lights and turning signal would work when he plugged the trailer in.
  • Seeing something my friend collects at Aldi and telling that friend and having her being excited about getting them at her Aldi.
  • Bobbi visiting. It was so nice to catch up!!!
  • Trying a new seitan recipe.
  • My Australian friend sending me her new address so I could mail her birthday gift, yay! What are the odds it will get there by April 29th, her birthday? (I am mailing it today, but the last time I mailed her something it took 2.5 months)

Sunday

  • Going back to bed after I got up to feed the cats. Success! I’ve been trying to do this for weeks.
  • Breakfast by me! I sometimes (rarely) cook. And it’s never great. Ha.
  • A non-windy run.
  • Getting a bunch of (personal) stuff done on the computer and packages ready to ship, even though I despise spending my Sunday afternoon doing that.
  • Painting a funny rock after dinner.

Lowlights

  • A close friend’s cat passing away. My heart is just broken for them.
  • Getting really frustrated on Friday trying to film something for a reel. If that happens again, it’s time to take a break from reels!
