Looking Forward

Two weeks from today, I'm hoping I'm still asleep. I'm SOOOOOO looking forward to having a solid two weeks (plus) off. 

The weekend was really good. I went to Columbus, if you'll recall to hang with Trip and Eva while Charlie and Maggie were in Austin. I arrived around 11:15. From there, Trip and I hung out for a bit before heading out to pick up Mom for lunch. Anne met us there since she was at a conference. From there, I dropped Mom and Trip off and went to Kroger or dinner stuff. Trip and I made chicken bowtie pasta and a salad and then settled in to watch all kinds of sports. 

Over the weekend I think I watched a bit of everything sportswise: high school football, lots of college football, college women's volleyball, college wrestling...and then of course when I got back home, I watched a bit of the Browns v. Steelers game. 

Anyway, Saturday Trip and I just hung at home. Eva had a sleepover and Trip took her there around 6:00. At 2:00 AM, I got a facetime call from Eva because in girls are crazy. Apparently, they were effing around and Eva ended up splitting her head open. It wasn't deep enough for stiches but it bled. Worried about it, Eva's friend's dad drove her home. She was fine. Again, girls are crazy. 

I was on the road yesterday around 9:30 and after walking Scout, I hunkered down to make French cakes and dinner (sausage and potato soup). I'll have to make more French cakes since most of what I made yesterday are going to friends. 

Dinner tonight: Chicken Marsala and broccoli. 


Nothing happening at school this week...no meetings but I am going to try and get all my IEPs written. I have 1 next Monday and then 3 right when we come back from break (although one of those is a scholarship so I won't do the majority of writing). 

It's a rainy and dreary day today. I hope it clears enough to get Scoutie out there later. We'll see.

OOOHHHH! I forgot! I bought a set of Hexclad! I'm so excited. They had a huge deal at Costco but online only so it was something I had to buy on my own (Jim went to Costco Saturday but couldn't find what I wanted and then I realized it was online only.) It's a 7-piece set (see pic) for $379. It would normally retail for about $530. and I can't wait to get it. Should be here by next Tuesday. 

K - I'm out. Later!
