Wow! This weekend really flew by with my getting very little accomplished.
I did spend an amazing Friday night with my college girlfriends. We had a glass of wine (Pinot Grigio – my favorite!), snacked on some yummy treats, gobbled up slices of pizza, and chatted until the wee hours of the morning.
I don’t think I have laughed that hard in so very long! It is so nice to be able to discuss school, professors, pre-clinicals/student teaching, and students with those who truly get it.
On Saturday, I slept in.
Truth be told I like being awake before the boys get up but this didn’t happen on Saturday. So from the second I was awake I was being beckoned to get drinks and breakfast. Two cinnamon rolls and a glass of apple juice later I sat down in front of the TV.
And there I sat all day. I watched movie after movie until I felt I should get up and be some what productive. So I got up and made dinner for my family.
Dan went out to run some errands. To be honest I think he needed some space from the giggly twins (Jacob and Christian). Those two can be such a handful sometimes.
But when he came back he had a present for me!! I love that man! I honestly couldn’t ask for more in a person.
One-Yard Wonders: 101 Sewing Fabric Project; Look what you can make with one yard of fabric! By: Rebecca Yaker
I have had my eye on this book for quite some time now – well ever since I got a sewing machine from Freecycle.
This book contains 101 sewing project all using only one yard of fabric. I cannot wait to go to the store and get some fun and colorful fabrics so I can try them out.
I am pretty certain I am going to make a great big bag to hold my school books for my first project.
Today was yet another unproductive day. I woke up late again so the gigglers were already up and at ‘em. They prepared their own breakfast this morning so I settled in with a great big cup of coffee.
I didn’t go to church this morning and I already wish I had. Going to church starts my week off on the right foot and I haven’t been in a few weeks.
I did go to Johnsen & Taylor with my Mom today. I love looking around at all the wonderful Christian books, art, mugs, and trinkets. Although I am not really a trinket person. I saw so many things I would love to read and hang in my home. I did buy one book called The Shape of Mercy by Susan Meissner.
I cannot wait to begin reading it although with all my classwork I doubt I will be able to complete it any time soon.
While I was gone shopping Dan hung pictures up around the house. When I came home I was so happy to see things hanging from the otherwise bare walls.
As for right now, I am doing laundry and finishing up some school work. Hopefully, I will have time tomorrow afternoon to finish the rest of it.
So that was my super unproductive weekend.
What did you get done (or not) this weekend?
It actually sounded pretty productive to me :) Sometimes extra sleep and down time is the best thing we can "do". I love the books you shared (I am a book a holic!).
