What a weekend!
Yesterday was beautiful. I picked up my mother in law and we had our usual Saturday outing to the grocery store then out for lunch. Me with my customary bowl of soup and her with her 1/2 of a hot pork sandwich. She was hungry cuz she gobbled it up in no time flat. She needs it..I think she weighs 100 lbs IF she is lucky.
I had planned to go to the gym, but then my nephew Blaine called and asked "what are you doing?" When he says that, I always know he really doesn't care what I'm doing, but rather how he can relay to me that what he wants to do is far better than anything I may have planned. It worked.
I picked Blaine up and up to WalMart we went to cruise the aisles for my much needed household items. While, I might add, he chatted me up and down the aisles. My guy so likes to talk! But he had me in stitches when he asked me, "Do you need any Red Solo Cups?" I lost it right then and there! Of course, he was said it innocently as we were standing right by the red Solo cups. LOL I, however, was reminded of the song "Red Solo Cup" by Toby Keith and started to sing "commence to party." (Those of you who know me well KNOW that I do NOT sing! but that moment dictated that I step outside my comfort zone!) LOL It was priceless because he started laughing...as did the other three people standing beside us!
From there we went up to IDK for a beer. And heck...why not hot wings and french fries too! We were there anyways! He is so well known that I swear half the patrons of the IDK said "Hey Blaine" as we walked in. I dropped him off at my sisters place as they were going to watch the KU (Kansas University) basketball game. Peggy, of course, has loyalties to the team because Karen did her Masters through KU. I left them alone to drink and holler at the TV, refs, players and anyone else that was causing KU to be behind in the game. Their rantings and yelling musta worked cuz KU pulled it out of their asses in OT. Way to go Jayhawks!
Needless to say, getting to the gym didn't happen. But when the diversion is Blaine, I'll gladly give up the gym anytime!
Today, I PLANNED on going to the gym this afternoon, but this stupid thing called SNOW arrived in the north land. Epic Fail! So here I am, updating my blogs, cooking a nice ham dinner, listening to music and giving my body a much needed break from exercise for a few days (that's my story and I'm sticking to it!)
I'll prepare for the week ahead in a couple hours but for now, I'm relaxing and thinking good thoughts.
Lazy Sunday's are good once in a while. I need to remember to take more of them.
