Busy

The weekend doesn't get planned....sometimes it happens all on its own

I had no plans for the weekend on Friday afternoon, but by 7pm that night, my Saturday was booked up. 

I received a voicemail from my older brother, Ron (Bismarck), stating that my great-nephew Brackston would be playing in a basketball tournament (3rd grade) at the Y in Jamestown at 8 am Saturday morning.    There was no way I was going to miss that.  But 8 am?  Really?   I'd so been looking forward to sleeping in, or rather, my body was looking forward to sleeping in.  Since I've been dealing with health issues it seems that I cannot get enough sleep lately. 

So this is what I did:  I set the alarm but promised myself that if my body chose to sleep in, I would let it.   Guess what?   Ya, I beat the alarm up at 6:30.  Darnnit!   So I showered, dressed and headed in to town to watch my Brackston play ball.  His team lost 40-4.  :(

I still had to pick my mother in law up for groceries and brunch, so as I left at 9::30, my brother Terry and his wife Marna arrived in time to watch the 2nd game being played at 10.

After I returned Ella home for her nap, I hit the gym to work off a little bit  of stress with some cardio and weights.  With  workout accomplished, I headed back up to watch the last game  Brackston met me with a great big hug. as did his brother Brennen (who had arrived with his father, Mark).   I got to catch up with what he was doing also.  He's apparently going to be part of the Bismarck Civic Orchestra playing with Mark woods on April 16th.   (I anticipate a road trip so I can see him - Brennen- perform). 

Then...I got to go home and get cleaned up and get ready for a night out to the annual Dakota Anglers banquet.  I'm not a fisher woman, but hubster is...so I went along.  Hey, at least I didn't have to cook dinner.   It was all good though... got to catch up with some of the other wives over a drink whilst the men listened attentively to the Game and Fish guy talk about some new breed of fish . 

Today I did get to sleep in.  Finally....  until the late hour of 7:30.  lol   Oh well.  I cleaned house, I did laundry, and I did dishes.  ...made lunch, went to the gym then took a stroll around the park (in 24 degree weather). 

I'm tired tonight.  I'm going to try and head to bed early and dream sweet dreams :)
