Weekend Sweeps

Friday

Had an eventful day at work, such as a client that I was supposed to visit was not where they were supposed to be. Great??!!. Stopped at a consignmnet shop and picked up a new Vera Bradley bookbag. Love it. It is one of 3 I have picked up in consignment shops over the past few months. It is the Kensington pattern but the Miller bag style. I am new to this, so do you only collect on pattern at a time? Do you like Vera Bradley and if so what was your first bag.

After a little retail therapy, I went to my line dancing class and worked up a sweat. I came home and enjoyed a nice long bath and some tv.

Saturday

Hubby and I went to my sorority's Jazz and Eggs event. The jazz band was very nice and the food was good.

After having a good meal, I walked it off by going to Trader Joe's, Walgreens, Crate and Barrell. After seeing the savings of Jules at Chic and pink, I have started my own coupon collection. It works wonders for he budget when I went to Kroger. 

Once I was done shopping, I went home and made the all-american meal of hanburgers and fries. Of course, my fries were sweet potato fries. Hubby was not feeling them so he made him some homemade steak fries.  Once we finished our meal we watched The Tourist and had dessert which the hubby had raspberry sherbert and I ate a Diet Pepsi Float( with reduced fat slow churred vanilla ice cream and a can of diet pepsi. According to Health magazine it is only 80 calories. Yummy!!)

Sunday

Had a good service at church. Came home and took a nap. Did a little Easter decorating around the house. I cooked barbecue pork roast in the Crock-pot, oven roasted red potatoes, candied carrots, cabbage and cornbread. It was so yummy and the hubby can attest to that since he did not speak a whole word during the meal.  It was nice to just spending a  day relaxing.

Hope you had a good weekend as well.

We thought The Tourist was pretty good, but at times was slow. I made myself hungry just typing about it.

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Wife +Sick Hubby =Medical Degree

I posted  last week about my husband being sick. Even though he is feeling better, he went to his doctor to make sure everything was OK. His doctor in-turn referred him to a specialist, to make sure as well. When I asked him what was the specialist going to do, he said " I do not know. Probably just check me out."  That did not sit well with me, so I decided that I needed to attend the appointment with him. We attended the appointment. He signed in at the front desk and the receptionist asked for the paperwork sent. He of course looked at me......especially since I was the one who fill out the paperwork. I am not sure why I filled out his paperwork, probably because he asked me to, but I never have him fill out my medical paperwork. I digress. We were escorted back to the exam room. The nurse was really nice. As she began to ask for some of the medical information, I found myself answering more of the questions than he was. Maybe I should have been quiet. The doctor eventua...
