I Love Weekends...especially an extra long one!

This weekend was quite productive I have to say:

Friday night we didn't do anything special...I don't think...bad memory apparently!


Saturday we cleaned out the baby's room and set up the crib.  I went through some stuff that was lingering around the baby's room and brought it to our local Family Center where they take donations and sell them for ridiculously low prices - when I dropped things off Saturday, the clothing counter was actually open (last Saturday of the month) and I bought the baby some sleepers, a pair of overalls, a shirt and a pair of cute shoes...grand total $4.00!  Saturday afternoon/evening, I decided to do some baking...I made some peanut butter balls that went in the freezer for Christmas...and made some butter tarts...


Sunday, Maddy and I went to Church where Little Miss Kenzie was being baptized.  When we came home, I got spaghetti sauce going and cleaned up the house a bit cuz SOME of the family was coming for supper...well it ended up just being two sisters...BIL Butter skipped out (as usual) and had more important things to do (some hockey game)...I was quite upset because he has been soooo busy at work these days (in tire sales) and when we go for our weekly dinner there during the week...he shows up late or as we are leaving so I thought, why not have a nice FAMILY Sunday supper and Butter could come and join us...NOPE!  Oh well...his wife informed me though that he put in a special request for shortbread cookies for Christmas...I guess we'll have to see about that!!  Haha!  We had some spaghetti supper, and my other sister in law brought some homemade yummy Monkey Bread for us to feast upon after supper (and left me the leftovers) and then we played some cards.


Monday we had the day off because I had to go for my glucose test.  It really doesn't bug me.  The orange drink isn't THAT bad...the only thing is I find it makes you really full having to drink such a large amount of the sweet stuff so early in the morning...but whatever...then we had to sit out and wait in the waiting room for an hour then do blood work.  Afterwards we headed up the line to my other sister in law's restaurant where we had a little lunch before heading home and napping - well tried to!  Back to work tomorrow...but at least it's a 4 day week AND it's my Christmas party Thursday after work, so hopefully this week will fly by!
