I know everybody is talking about their books today but since I just jumped back into blogland AND finished a massive account review at work I don't have my books ready to link up. Instead I'm sharing all my weekend happenings, maybe not unique on a Monday but a little bit unique on a Tuesday.
Friday - I ordered two books from Half.com, one that is not available at my library and one that I want to read without feeling the library timeline crunch. I also went in search of shoes for my class reunion, I found exactly what I was looking for. The tallest shoes in the store, now instead of looking at Tyson's waist all night I can check out his shoulders. Since they were having a buy one get one half off sale I picked up a cute pair of black Keds boat shoes too. A nice alternative to flip flops in the summer especially on rainy days.
Saturday - My mom came to stay for two nights, I could tell you she came to visit me but that would be a lie. She came to hang out with Little K and to clean my carpets, it wasn't forced labor as payment for me letting her visit her grand daughter. She likes doing that kind of thing; if I ever need anything cleaned, fixed, or painted and I don't want to do it myself mom's the one to call. We took a short but windy beach walk and explored the 2nd floor of the beach grocery which is full of every overpriced thing you could ever want to stock your beach house with.
Sunday - We spent this lovely spring like day laying on the beach in our sweat pants and sweat shirts with our shoes off. After being stuck inside and visiting the frozen tundra aka Michigan it was nice to soak up a little vitamin D and sea air. I finished Yes Please by Amy Poelher and was super glad her comedic voice was evident throughout.
On the schedule for tomorrow, lunch date with new local friend! What's the most exciting thing on your schedule this week?

Happy you got some good purchases at Half.com! Feels good to find that perfect pair of shoes! Of course the grandparents never want to see the adult-children anymore :). Nice that your mom cleaned the carpets! Hmm...the most exciting thing on my schedule this week is throwing a surprise party for 3 co workers. They each think it's a party for the other. It's going to be a fun and crazy reveal :)! Plus, the gag gifts are the best part of any party.
ReplyDeleteLoved that you snuck a book review in there :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great weekend and I am epically jealous of your day at the beach. I cannot wait until I can do that again. Enjoy your lunch date tomorrow!
I love boat shoes and I really liked Yes Please. Glad you did too.
ReplyDeleteHmmm today if I can get away I'm going to eat Vietnamese food for lunch with Andrew which I'm pumped about because I haven't eaten it in months it seems. My calendar is empty this week so nothing particularly exciting. Hope you have a great lunch date!
Hurrah for a lunch date!
ReplyDeleteI would love to spend a day on the beach in sweats.
The most exciting thing on my schedule might be a walk to the library. I'm not sad that that's the most exciting thing I have going on right now.
Never heard of Half dot com. I need to get around to reading Amy's book. Your Mom can feel free to stop by my house, I'll feed her!!!
ReplyDeleteKeds style shoes seem to be making a comeback -- you'll be so in style this spring! And I laughed when you said you wanted the tallest shoes in the store, I'm always looking for the opposite since I'm tall to begin with and my hubby is only about 2 inches taller than me. =)
ReplyDeleteI have a pretty uneventful week, but I am really looking forward to working from home today. In my pjs. OH YEAH.
And I'm supposed to run 7 miles this weekend, although I'm not really looking forward to that.
you are so lucky to not have to deal with this winter cold snow bullshizz! what i wouldn't give to be able to walk on a beach.
ReplyDeletethe most exciting thing are my muay thai sessions! if i could do it every day i would
I need my carpet cleaned... give me your mom's number! ;P
