Friday night was Steph's going away party. So after getting reamed at work about my aging increasing$100K in one week (that's what happens when you double my work load and give me the same 3 people to work it) I was ready for a drink. :) I only stayed for a short while, enough for one drink. Then off to Glazed and Confused for "girls night" All I can say is even if Cheri's artistic nature did make me look bad, I'm glad I sat by her. :) She wrote all the words for me in her awesome handwriting. :) I painted a cute plate for my mom for Christmas. It says "Grandma's Garden" and has a flower pot (thanks to Cheri) and 10 flowers with all the kids' names. I think she'll like it. I pick it up Friday. It was fun. I skipped Bunko for Instant Iguana's CD debut concert so it was good to see everyone. :)
Saturday Karl went in to get some OT so I can shop on Friday. Yeah!! Bree had a game at noon. They got their butts kicked but I see improvement, so I'll take it.
I didn't upload the pictures yet, but I'll work on it this week.
Sunday I woke up at 6:30 to go to Marsha's to fix her hair and do her makeup for her family pictures. I guess she thinks I like her or something? She better be glad I do. That was too early to get up when I didn't have to. LOL
Then off to my sister's. She and her fam are headed to Branson this week so we did Thanksgiving a few days early. It was nice. Plus I got my baby fill cuz I got to hold Sophie the whole time...YEAH! I had to fight with Bree to hold her, but I'm bigger and I can ground her if she bothers me too much. :)
My friend Christine's father passed away last week and the wake was Sunday. I didn't make it up there. How awful. He and his wife were at Lowe's and he had a massive heart attack and never woke up. So unexpected. I so feel for her. On top of that, her two kids were sick all night Saturday AND her husband was in the hospital on Sunday with what they think is appendicitis. How much can one person take? I guess it puts life into perspective. All the little things I complain about are nothing. Everyone keep Christine and her family in your thoughts and prayers. She's got to be having a rough time.
Not much else. But what I thought was "nothing to do" ended up a pretty busy weekend.
Tomorrow going to say goodbye to Stephanie. I'm already PMSing so this ought to make for more tears than I'm ready to shed. I really hate that she is leaving. First Ebony, now her. Apparently all my friends are headed to the West coast. I tried California for awhile. Although the lure of the beach one minute and the mountains the next was great, who can afford to live there? I spent 2 hours a day in the car commuting, one way. No thanks. I complain about 40 minutes now.
