Weekends over...busy week ahead....



Wow...Monday again, back to the grindstone...so to speak. Not feeling too well today, so....here is my weekend in bullets...

***Friday...drove down to pick up Justin....took the two little ones with me....the drive was a nightmare, there and back. Why? The two little ones fight/argue the entire time....it really wears on the nerves after a while. Plus, I am constantly yelling at my four year old, Max, to stay in his booster seat, leave his seat belt on...I totally wanted to paddle his bottom...after the third time of having to pull over to buckle him back up! We stopped at the Chinese Buffet for dinner....talk about nasty. I don't know why I let the kids talk me into going there...the food is always terrible....they enjoy it it seems, but just not very tasty to me. Did the grocery shopping, stopped and rented several movies. We watched Shrek III when we got home...it was a cute movie....just not as captivating as the first two...I think they need to stop with this one.

***Saturday....I spent the entire morning/afternoon cleaning my house. Which is really hard to do when the two little ones are dragging out/messing up quicker than you can clean up. I cleaned out my closet and dresser drawers...I finally bucked up and admitted to myself that there was no longer a point in me hanging on to all the size 2 clothes in my closet...I am a size 6 now....so....I knew it was time to say goodbye to all those cute tiny little clothes...sigh....hated every moment of it. I filled up three large bags to take to the Goodwill....very painful to let those go, let me tell ya!

While I was doing that, the hubster was outside, after working all night, raking and burning leaves....I finished up the housework...showered and dressed....loaded up the kids and took them to see Bee Movie...

We went to what they call the twilight showing, cheaper that way. It was very cute movie, I highly recommend it to all of you parents out there with younger kids...my two little ones enjoyed it immensely...14 yr old wasn't too impressed...but, hey...you can't please everyone.
We then went to Fazoli's...14 year old got sick while we there....me thinks he ingested a little too much buttery popcorn at the theaters....so, we had to pack up our food and leave....I went back to Hell-Mart...did our shopping for Thanksgiving....came home...put the little ones to bed, saw hubby off to work.
Tried to watch Ocean's 13..but fell asleep, so another rental movie that has to go back, unwatched.
***Sunday was spent in the car...delivering 14 year old back to his Dad's....
I did manage to cook dinner...I made a fabulous Chicken Tortilla Soup and cornbread...out of this world, I will post the recipe for all of you, if you want.....I watched Reign Over Me, with Adam Sandler....since Desperate Housewives wasn't on.....excellent movie....a little sad, I cried....but, I highly recommend it.

Well...that's my weekend...now, I am stuck here at work....feeling pretty craptastic myself....may go home here in a little while....things are slow, not much work to be done....I could use a nap.

Dixiechick...out!
