Low Key Weekend

It was a low key weekend and there was a lot of much needed relaxation. Friday night, Jim and I just chilled out with a couple of the neighbors for a couple cocktails, ate dinner, I took a lovely bath and then we crashed. 

Saturday we got up, did our dog walk, cleaned the house and then headed over to Raeburn to eat lunch with Dad and Becky. I also finally got to see the new house. I'm a little jealous because it's exactly what I want when I move back to the city. One level (although the basement is HUGE and is partially finished), a nice yard (spacious but not unmanageable), plenty of room, cozy; it has a working fireplace and lots of room. I can't wait to see it when they have all the renovations done. I'm very excited for them and I know it will be such a load of Becky's mind when it's all said and done. I love Raeburn (the house I grew up in) and will be a little sad when it's not "ours" anymore but for two people, (for anyone really) it's a behemoth and more then can be handled at this point. 

Sunday Jim and I had a nice big breakfast, we walked the boys and then went to Shooters. When we got home, I mowed the back yard (it's that time of year when the grass gets REALLY thick and if you don't stay on top of it, mowing can be near impossible) and Jim worked in the front. He got some of the beds cleaned out and managed to burn most of the "crap" wood from our last split in the front yard stump from one of the trees we took down. It's nearly ready to be seeded I think. Dinner was chicken Shawarma which was delicious. I ended up going to be early because I was really wiped. For no reason really. 

So another week at school. I have 2 or 3 meetings this week and next. I have a couple IEP amendment meetings for those kids going to the career center then I have an evaluation meeting where my student will most like NOT qualify. Other than that, it should be an easy week. 

My hips have been giving me fits lately. My right one really. I think this morning I was finally able to work it out with yoga. Fingers crossed because it's annoying. 

Okay I need to get a move on because I need to stop at Kroger for some fruit. Dinner tonight will be a Cobb salad. 

K - happy Monday! Only 4 more Mondays! Hot dog! Later!
