You just have to love LONG weekends. Even though the weather was nice and cold it was still great. I so needed that extra day. Its been a long time since I've actually gotten a day off, so that was a nice treat. At least maybe once the new secretary starts, maybe I'll actually get to take a real vacation. She starts on the 16th so wish me luck. They made me interview this one, and seeing as how I am not a very good judge of character, lets hope it works out, cause if not, I'll have to blame myself!! :-) Of course, to my defense, they didn't tell me I was interviewing her until right before I was supposed to walk in there and meet her! But hey, we share the same name, and she goes by one of my nicknames and she lives on my side of town. So, keep your fingers crossed!!
We started Friday off by sleeping in. of course being lazy, sleeping is always enjoyable. Then we lazily got out and did some shopping. The worst part of the day though, we went up to Rona's vet hospital and ordered an urn for Keisha. Now that sucked. Felt really weird having to do that. But we got it done and once Keisha comes home, she will have a cute little urn to live in and hang out on the mantel with Fancy. Its hard to believe that Fancy has been gone for almost four years now. Seems like just yesterday. Once that was taken care of, we stopped and ate some really good italian food, seeing as how it was Good Friday, there was no meat involved. It was a new restaurant and it was actually really good.
Now, Friday turned very interesting after we got home. We got a very intriguing phone call. I have to say, I know I am not supposed to enjoy when you actually get to see karma in action, but in this particular incident, I have to admit, I really enjoyed it. I learned some very interesting information and enjoyed the heck out of it. i wont go into all here, just suffice to say you reap what you sew and it was so great to see this in action.
Saturday started again with my favorite hobby, sleeping in!! Then we decided to do something I haven't done in FOREVER. We met Rona and our nephew Jeremy and went bowling. Yes, I said bowling. I found out that I don't suck at it nearly as bad as I used to. the last time I can remember bowling, I kid you not, I got a 14! I was terrible. I couldn't barely get the darn ball down to the pins! This time, I actually did pretty good. The first game I bowled a 102 and the second game was a 132. I even got two strikes in one game! YEAH!!! We had a ball. It was soo much fun. of course, I don't use a few of the muscles that you use for bowling, so now I am completely sore! Man am I ever out of shape! but hey, it was sure worth it.
Sunday we actually went over to the folks house and had a great lunch. It was just the four of us, my parents, my dh and me and we had a wonderful time. My mom and I went and chatted for hours. It was so nice. No interuptions, no nothing. Just me and my mom. I loved it!!
Now of course, its back to realtiy and back to work. {insert big sigh} I guess the weekend always has to come to an end right???

I'm for picketing congress to pass a bill to extend weekends to five days! Everyone would be so rested their productivity would soar and they'd get everything done in two days.
Okay get out of my head!!! I just told my boss that very thing this morning! I told him those two days would rock cause we'd get sooo much done and just think, he wouldn't have to deal with all the phone calls he has to deal with. I thought it was a great idea! Of course, his look told me that I'd get that probably about the same time as that company helicopter I've been trying to talk him into. I told him I would learn to fly no problem. Let me know when you get ready to go to Congress and I'll picket with ya!
and ps.....think of all the sick time they would save that they wouldn't really have to pay us for! Some many good reasons to go to that. :-)
