I am le tired
Aug. 18th, 2014 01:59 pmPretty good weekend, all things considered.
Thursday - Dragged myself through work. At 3 pm, got sucked into Issue That Will Not Die, Part The Umpteenth. I made it home without strangling anyone.
Friday - Got to sleep in just a little bit. Emi came running in to drag me out for our shopping day. We got dressed and some breakfast. Then we went to Party City (birthday supplies), Frugal Muse (books!), Target (back to school supplies), McDonald's (lunch), Great Clips (to fix Emi's self-haircut), then the Game Store (new D&D book). By the time we got home, I was totally exhausted and Emi was in Bear Mode.
Friday night, we went to a goodbye dinner at the new-old Chinese buffet for Emi's bestie. She's going back to Texas to be with her momma. I insisted that we stop by JoAnn's for princess dress fabric for Emi. I got enough fabric to cut two Elsa dresses - one for Emi and one for her bestie.
Saturday - I woke up to the kiddos piling on me. Since we were up early, I got us all out the door and up to the Farmers' Market. SO MANY VEGGIES! We had our snacks and bought healthy options. In the afternoon, I played a bit of GW2, then made a veggie stir-fry for dinner.
I also cut out the pattern and both dresses. So there.
Sunday - Emi turned FIVE! Whoa! We had pancakes, snow cones, presents, and a couple of meltdowns. And SO MANY LEGO. So many Lego. Au and her family came over and the kids had a rocking time. And I unloaded shinies on Au. I still have many shinies left over for other shiny-loving folks.
Today - Work. Staff meeting. New time log system. Snark with friend. Ox turned THREE today! We're having a french fry picnic (his choice) for dinner.
Also, the new Iron Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest is live. And I'm excited about the first prompt. It's going to be horrible and wonderful.
