So we had a great weekend to top off a so-so to rotten week. Greg was gone from Monday afternoon through last night and it was just hard on me on top of the kidney stone thing (Friday's x-ray showed them gone though, yay!). Plus the kids had Friday off from school due to the extreme cold and like I mentioned Thursday, they didn't want to be indoors with snow outside. I finally let them out and they lasted about 5 minutes in the below zero temps. And then I spent half an hour cleaning up coats, scarves, hats, gloves, and tracked in snow. Ah, the joys of motherhood.
Back to my good weekend. Steph convinced my sorry self to meet her at the movies with the kids. Who knew laughing for an hour and a half could brighten your mood? (Also I can be a bit dense at times.) We saw "Bedtime Stories" with Adam Sandler and it's funny. It's a bit like "Night at the Museum", good for the whole family. And then Steph and her kids came to my house for tacos and then we went to their house for popcorn and another movie. This is totally why I moved to Indiana.
Sunday we cleaned in preparation for the twin's Girl Scout meeting here (dude, I need to quit agreeing to these things!). I realized that due to my kidney stone stuff, I hadn't vacuumed upstairs since before New Years. Yuck! The meeting went well and Greg arrived home shortly after. And we baked chocolate chip cookies. Any day is made better with chocolate chip cookies.
Today the kids are off school again (Happy Martin Luther King Day, Observed!) and I'm trying to catch up on laundry. I'm almost ready to put my Etsy store back up so I hope I can get back into the swing of things with that. This week's going to be a busy one though. Due to a scheduling snafu, I have 3 different places I'm suppose to be Wednesday morning (dentist, school library, home for new cable/tv/phone install). Oops. But I have my health back, the kids are doing well, Greg's home (for the moment), and the house is clean. Life is good. Plus I hid a couple of chocolate chip cookies for myself later. hehe
