Weekend Wrap-Up….on a Tuesday

Thanks for all of your sweet comments on my new blog header. I think it turned out cute! And since we are supposed to get 6-12 inches of snow today, it seems appropriate.

I had Monday off of work which meant that I was too busy enjoying my freedom to sit down and write about the weekend. So here it is….weekend wrap-up on a Tuesday.
On Friday I had an unexpected half day of work…score! I didn’t do much other than take Wrigley to the dog park and then go to the gym. I went to bed really early because on Saturday morning I had to proctor a standardized test at my work. No fun at all! It was seriously the most boring thing ever. Then Saturday afternoon my in laws came in to town. We all had pancakes for dinner and then went to see Avatar, finally. It was a good movie but so long! I wish we would have rented it…that way we could have had an intermission! My neck and back were so sore from sitting that long and I had a major headache from the 3D glasses. Then on Sunday we went to church and then the husband and I lounged around and then watched the Superbowl. Well, he watched the Superbowl, and I did laundry and watched a few of the commercials…exciting, I know.
I hope everyone had a nice and relaxing weekend! If you don’t hear from me, send help…I may be buried in a foot of snow.

A. Dance her little booty off
B. Just stand there and stare
C. Cry
I’m hoping for A, but B and C are definite possibilities. What do you think will happen?
